    I like it quite a bit actually. At least from afar- would like to see close-ups since it just looks like body colored paint to reveal the circular lenses. Nice effect for some reason....

    yes you're right but it's a light modification, there the lights looks more Ferrari "standards" i think it's worth trying

    That's Chip Connor's old car, 123346. Honestly, I can't even see how the rear lights have been modified. Can someone clue me in? Here's a picture of the rear of said car:

    I think the surrounding section of the lights is not usually body colored, but reflective?

    Bill, the picture I posted was how the 456 came from the Factory. I like the body-colored and carbon fiber trim modifications.

    I remember a time, on the old board, when I couldn't identify those tail lights.

    And I remember Carbon's first visit to Classic Coach. We took some pictures out front and they were posted here. But they were lost in the Crash of 2004. :(

    I don't need pictures to remember that day! I saw so many F40s that day! And a Countach! And an XJ220! And a 333 SP! It was an intense day.
