They were spray painted with some type of tint. I can't stand them. I'll have stock clear lights on today.

Looks nice, I like the clean look of it. Although I'm more of a fan of the turbine wheels . Glad it fit

Hahaha yeah the previous owner wasn't very bright. Lol Here is how it sits now. I am pretty sure I am going to have the car painted a different color at some point. Probably black.

I would recommend keeping the phenolic spacer though, those do wonders on carburetors. If you ever decide to get a cowl hood or something, slap that baby back on there.

not all the time they don't, on my 347 I tested a 1 inch out back in the spring on my 347, it lost nearly 2 mph in the 1/4 mile, 3 runs with the same result, took it back off and very next run had the trap speed back......it all depends on the combination.

Oh, I didn't know that. I've just seen a few articles on it with good hp & torque gains. Good to know!
