I'll see if i can work out finding a pinkish color but chances are NO it wont happen. As of this moment there's probably a 5% probability of me making one (real low, cuz I probalby wont even ever find an LED that is very light red).

anyhow, at this moment, its 11:20pm, im usually in bed by 1030pm, so i'll pull out my digital tomorrow to show the true blood solid red color that the most current kickplates look like. this is what I took with my Iphone. the Iphone is making it very very light red in compairison to how dark it really is. (once again, dark as in solid blood red, not as in "hard to see".)

-edit- deleted iphone pictures, see post below for actual digital pictures.

Here are the better red pictures, still a little orange-ish compared to actual blood red that they are but nonetheless much better than the Iphone pictures, heh:

Hopefully so.. Good skills... should see what all we can do. I know I'd like to see eventually floorboards, and trunk interior for shows also... Wonder how an underbody kit would look on these, or if thats too ricey?
