Its not that much work there are a few tricks.. All of my trunk is shaved now. the tail lights are L.ED"S and are in the A** rear bumper

Some shaved trunks look great, while other's are less desirable. To me I love the tailights of the alero, that's one of the things that caught my eye about the alero.

[Alero04]

me too Lisa..i love the tails on our cars!

what kinda tricks are we talking about? i don't think id' go to the point of eliminating the outer tails for LED's tho, i do like those..but the inner's have to go

[forbidden]

well what i did was fiberglassed the trunk lights in. I used the tails as my fillers. Had it that way for about 2 years and never had a problem

[pawzbear]
