Completely. Just wrapped. Can come off completely.

On a side note, I was tailgated by a metal horse yesterday at Connaught Road. I was thinking he's going make me stop for my tinted tail light.

He followed me for 2 mins really close (which feels like eternity) and left me alone......

Close call bro. But I have seen many having the light tint.

No. The lights were taken off and tinted when I put on the whitelines. I looked at the tinted stock red lights and didn't look so good so I didn't put them on.

Guys,

Those with M-Kit on Sophisto Grey ... What is your advise on the paint colour for the Diffuser (M-Kit) ?

Do you just go with the same body colour ?

Or Black (Matt) which is hardly visable on the colour difference.

Thank you

I think the standard M-kit diffuser is supposed to be in black color. I only left it at standard. I don't stare at the butt of my car too much anyway
