Generations
GK (2001-2004)
"bubble headlights and mostly red tails. Front bumper has the long narrow slits and side gills look like gills. FL headlights require a harness modification or swap. Can be converted to FL taillights by hammering the chassis in to dent it. Convert to FL2 tails requires cutting chassis and swapping FL2 rear bumper."
