    Hmmm, I don't know. I would have to see an example to know for sure.

                  This might look good on a black car, but I highly doubt you'll be able to properly match the body color otherwise. If you want different tails that bad then go ahead and try it. If you fail, a junkyard set shouldn't cost more than $40-$50.

                  while you're out there, you might as well adjust your air/fuel ratio by smell... and your tire pressure by ride height

                        only problem is it never comes out like a total match, always a different color that expected and it makes it look worse

                        you could always smoke your tails, just a thought, maybe someone can chop up a pic and see what it would look like in a white pro

                              I don't know I like my tails, but it's kinda a biased opinion.
