shaved rear end

[Tri-Star]

I like boobala's black photoshop but i gotta say my cars my fav...

[Boobala]

What lights did you use for the 'chops? They look like older skyline tail-lights, but I don't know my tail-lights all that well....

 

This was the donner car/photo:

Here's another example of the shaved bumper with the round tail-lights.

This time in three different flavors; Black, Blue, and Carbon Fiber:

I shaved first, but later decided to wax it. Still unsatisfied, I had it tucked and lifted, but eventually I took it to the Michael Jackson clinic for refacing my entire a$$:

I like everything except the tail-lights. They look too small or not tall enough, and the shape of them seems to conflict with the shape of the surround.

 

Otherwise the workmanship is amazing. It looks factory.

I disagree... I think the tail-lights look great... I've always been a big fan of that setup.

I love Terry's taillights also, heck I pretty much like everything about his car. That is a work of art on wheels.

I agree, and I recognized this when I was designing the rear end. Thus, when I built the spoiler, I realized that improvements could be made in matching the panel shape with the tail light shape, but the only way to do it was to incorporate the upper curve, required in the panel, into the bottom of the spoiler. So I sculpted the lower part of the spoiler (as seen on the previous photos) with a curve in it. Then after the above photo was taken, I painted the sculpted portion the same color as the tail light panel to somewhat mimic the shape I wanted to give the panel. From directly behind the car, the tail light panel blends into the bottom of the spoiler to make it appear to be a continuous piece. Below is a poor modification of the photo above with the sculpted portion painted the same color as the panel. This is as the car sits at this time.

DAMN, thats mean!

I particularly like the 'Antique Car' plate. I would think that an antique car in Arkansas would be a hay wagon, not a one of a kind rocketship.
