    rear headlights

    yeah that looks sick ive never seen it done on a stato but it look really nice, in a weird way its kinda easyer to see if your lights are on cause its the contrast between black and light, and with the stock lights the sunlight reflects in the light and makes it harder to see if that makes any sense

    What's this noise?
