If you can act quickly, my car is going away tomorrow and that includes my already painted tail lights. I know a number of you guys wanted to do them, or wanted help with them - I am going to be taking the random odds and ends off my car tonight so if you want to save yourself the hassle of painting or buying tail light overlays you can swing by my house and trade with me. ---

why don’t you just swap them with your new sti? I’m sure the lot boy who is delivering your car won’t mind sitting there for an hour while you do it. TRUST ME. 😉 ---

Have someone swap the tails as you swap the rims. Plus have the tails off before he gets there. ---

lol the sales guy i’ve been working with may be delivering it himself, if so I could probably swap the tail lights also. regardless offer still stands if someone wants my tail lights, I can redo them for myself its not a big deal and makes my day easier 😛 ---

You’re getting a new STI? Isn’t your current one pretty much new? ---

A bonus to having it driven up is that it’ll be ready for the break in oil change. You should confirm today that the reflash was done (if needed) before he brings it up. ---
