Default Should I or shouldn't I?

Okay here's a picture of the back end of my car...

Should I do a very light tint on the taillights/3rd brake light/rear bumper reflectors or should I just leave them?

Also do you guys think a matte black vinyl would look goodin the middle of the lower bumper?

hard to say without seeing what it would like like side by side, i think your car looks pretty decent just the way it is.

All I want to do is a very VERY light coat on those peices, just to contrast the headlights better. I don't want to tint them like yours Nick. I just want something very light, that's all. What do you think?

Chrome?? I think I'll pass on the chrome...

A few of my buddy's are going to be my guiniea (spelling) pigs w/ the tint. I'm still undecided. I'll pull mine off when my buddy does his tomarrow and throw it on my car to see how it looks but as of right now it is what it is...

Okay as far as the tint's concerned, that'll probably be a negative. I was looking at it tonight and I really don't think I want to do it. But like I said, I'm still going to throw my buddy's tail lights on my car tomarrow night to see how it looks still, but I think I may just leave it.

But now for another question...

I love the Mach 1 Chin Spoilers and am dying to get one for my Cobra, but my car is dropped approximatly 2.25" or so all around, here are some pics...

I'm worried about clearance issues if I get it. Parking spaces can be avoided by backing in, but driveways don't treat my car very good as is and I know the chin spoiler will scrape bad on driveways and other stuff like that. I want to keep the chin spoiler nice and I don't want to roll around w/ a scrapped up chin spoiler, I'd rather not have one if it'll end up like that. What do you guys think?? Anyone else have their car dropped as low as mine w/ a chin spoiler on it??

If I could afford it I would, but then again if I had the money to do that I'd put it towards a blower instead. I only plan on putting so much money into this car because I want to upgrade to an 03 or 04 in a few years so I don't think I'll be changing any body parts on this car...
