    nice, ive never seen clear corners before for the 8.5 gen, i had them on my 8 gen but never 8.5. its gonna look hecka mean with the "youll see why" ambers. Thats a really odd color fog light lense though, im asuming you used vinyl since when i painted mine with krynol window tint paint it looked more orange, unless you do light coats.

    It's just vinyl. I wanted to be able to take it off if I didn't like it. I do like it so I might paint it eventually

    I think the flash makes it look too yellow/bright, usually the flash just messes up the way any car looks.

    True, the paint is also removable very easily, just scrapes right off with a little airplane remover.

    its a resonator, it severly restricts air to the motor, i got rid of mine and put my filter down where that box is for better air flow.

    Rainbowstar had them I'm 98 percent sure, even in the picture you used of a "properly molded lip". Oh and I take it from this comment and Press' comment above that you bought hummers black out corners. That's my prediction.
