...and saw both the red and blue Glassbacks up close and personal. Not bad. Looks much bigger than my stock 05 in person for some reason. Like the chin spoiler, ducktail and c-pillar scoops, don't like the grill , the glassback or their hood. Anybody know what brand of rims that blue one has on it though? I neglected to ask, but I like them too. I Asked them when all this stuff was going to be ready. They said mid January.

brake light cutout?

Did the ducktail spoiler have a cutout for the brake light? All of the pictures I have seen have the brake light covered. I think it is illegal to do that, so I would think they would have to have a cutout for it.

It was my understanding that you just had to have two taillights and the third was optional, but I could be wrong.

You should want the 3rd brake like gone.. it's ugly..

You add a much better look to the car by shaving it, and the Key hole for Trunk...

Don't try to be legal .. it's just a light.

Are you for real? Do you think you need anymore attention from cops without having an illegal tail light situation? You won't get any argument from me that it looks better without the extra light, but I intend on playing by the rules.

yea, i know of many cars 96+ that removed or Shaved them off...

You think the cops would know if your cars , was to have a 3rd brake light.
Cops don't care.

Again it's just a light.

I dont know for sure in other states, but I think the 3rd is law here on the left coast. I think it looks better without, just like I think it looks better without a front license plate. I know for sure that if it is illegal, they might not care but they can bust you if they want. And, I have bad luck.
