clear tails

Chat about all things Bonneville (and related cars). Off-topic stuff should be in the lounge, and all mechanical problems should be posted in the proper forum.

Just another modification we can do to standout/be different from the rest. Plus (depending on your opinion) It cleans up the look of the car. I have yet to do it to the tail on either of my cars, but I'm in the middle of doing the tails on the '93 sort of. I started and then put it off...thanks for reminding me. :wink:

There's isn't any orange on the car, so why have it there unless the car is running.

I agree that it helps clean up the car. Especially with the license plate, the rear end is fairly busy.
