Default Youre opinion please

I was toying with the idea of using VHT nightshades to do my entire tailights but decided to just do the outlines of the lights. I found a pisture of the rear of a Mustang (not mine, mine is Tungsten Grey), I did a quick MS Paint on this photo for an idea of just doing the lower boxes on the lights including the reverse light. I plan to do the rear blackout panel in the future. I can't attach a photo directly as I'm not sure how, but here is a link to my rendering. Does this look OK or should I stick with just the outlines??? TIA

If it were up to me I would do the entire light but it is your car so do what you like.

I think your photoshop idea is pretty cool. It looks good on the legend lime that you have. It'll also keep you from getting tickets that you might get with blacked out brake lights.

Thanks bro. Yea it really turned out great at the end an my buddy is really good at that kinda stuff so I had his help with them. It only took me about 2.5 hrs to do all of them and I would deffinately recommend this to anyone that is wanting to do this. It really does bring out the car more I think. nice mod for under $20
