    Thanks :) Yeah, I could use some more action footage of the soob...but then again, where? Nobody has a camera (thankfully) when I'm being an asshat with my car ;)

    Yeah, the APS is pretty big, but it can handle plenty of power :) I could use more power. Maybe this winter I'll throw more money away on my car :)

    Basically, you bake your headlights for a bit. Then pull them apart. Take out the orange things. Paint the parts that you want to paint (or just leave them cleared). Wait for paint to dry. Bake them again, put back together. Apply some silicone where necessary. Look at scoobymods.com for the Koji headlight mod :)

    Otherwise, for tails and stuff, film works...that's what I did. Some people get them painted.
