when i bought my tails i paid 75 bucks for the set and sold my stockers for the same price. just like harley grilles were only 160 bucks and now they are almost 700. boy those days are long gone.

i do have a heat gun but i would think if you went that method you would run a higher risk of warping the plastic or something like that, but like i said this will be a good modd for fall break ha
