ECSTuning??? Side marker lights...

Tried to PM you but it said your inbox was full, so I'll just ask it outloud.
When you installed your Aero Gloss Trim, what did you do with your side marker lights? Leave them plugged and just tie them off and tuck them away?

Also, any idea when the JCW Style Aero Body Kit (Mfg Part # 51192154643) will go on sale again? Black Friday?

I asked the same question via PM before his inbox got full again. He replied he left them plugged in and zip tied them out of the way.

I have the same kit but I am removing the bulbs. I have some rubber covers for the GPS stuff I sell that covered the light socket tightly so no moisture gets in and I am going to program out the check bulb warning.

Have you started installing it? My front bumper was a real bugger to get it on and all the plastic clippy clips clipped.

Bought the gloss trim kit first, then when I was about to buy the Aero kit it went up in price so I decided to wait till it goes on sale again, hopefully soon. The money I was saving up for it I spent on new piping and bigger intercooler, which I figured I'd install when I put the aero kit on. Kind of only want to take everything apart only once, haha.

Sorry guys just cleaned it up and going through them. I was on vacation the last couple weeks. Yep just tucked them behind. Might not have a big sale until holiday usually.
