Yea I don't like the rears much either. Looks a bit ricey. Fronts look good though
I say leave the rears alone and just do the fronts. That pic of the 575M is enough evidence for anyone to want to do this!
Thx for all the replies guyz... I got a few other questions. When you bake the headlight what temp. do I set my oven and for how long? Do I wait until it's a golden brown?... And can a paint shop match Suzuka Blue well? Or should I get it from Honda? Thx in advance
A good colormatch shop should match perfectly, honestly, I dare someone to see a color difference between my inserts and the body beside them.
Go to ricks2k.com, the instructions for installing clear corner inserts will explain the baking process. But as I said, if you paint them, DO NOT use a damp cloth to insulate. I had to sand and repaint an insert because the humidity
ed up my finish.

I'd be curious to see how it's done.
