You should be able to guess the tail lights easily...

http://www.iguanaoffroad.com/RearLight.jpg

I recommended the front lights to give an agressive look. What they come off is undeniably sexy and very agressive.

Brad has pushed himself very hard to create this buggy, and he's done a fantastic job. Without his relentless motivation it would never have become a reality.
