Here is a quick pic of my newest mod for my car. I picked it up today. No, the styrofoam is not in it yet, and its not actually attached to the car. There are only two screws holding it on by the tail lights. Ive got to pull it back off to do the wiring to make everything fuctional. I do have export tail lights too (several sets) but Im not putting them in just yet. I kind of like the all red look. Ill have more and better pics once its attached finally and I clean the car up.

Edit: This is also an R/T rear bumper, so its got cut outs for the exhaust. Im going to be raising my muffler up so the tips wont be hanging as low as they are in the pic once everything is finished.

Psshh...kids. Dont even want to think that far into the future.

And you guys would really hate me if you knew how much I actually paid for all that. lol

Its something of a hobby of mine though, collecting rare and valuble parts. You guys should see the 55-59 chevy and GMC truck stuff I have. heh

Well, Mine came from Michigan. :lol: But generally you would have to find someone overseas to get one and ship it to you. Europe, England, Japan or a country/region that got export stuff like that. The rear fogs are just that, fog lights. They are as bright as brake lights and are for the really dense fog and bad weather that many european countries experience. A few cars sold in America have them, such as some BMWs, Volvos, Mercedes, etc.

Could you maybe get that from a dealer if you give them the part#? Are you planning on selling any of those tails?? How did you get yours from Michigan??

No. Dealers cannot even put in orders for export-spec parts. This bumper went to a dealer and sat for a couple years because someone made a big mistake somewhere. (its brand new, never installed on a car until yesterday when I installed it)

And no again, I dont plan on selling any of them at this time.

Ok, so why do the SRT's not have a cool bumper like this for us 03+ guys??? What does the SRT have for a rear fog? Any of our (3?) European members have some insight??

Uuuh eurostyle. I'm so unhappy with my foglights in the bumper, I want to have an american bumper - and what do you do? Installing exactly these ugly eurolights... Okay, I can undestand you. In germany we're tired of these lights - and in USA this looks very specially...

In Germany looks every Neon like yours - also the '03...

because europe and other over-seas export markets didn't see the 03+ 2gn refresh like the US and canada. nor are there any export market SRT-4s, other than canada.
