Bringing this wayyy back...lol

zomk makes them with black rings rather than the chrome!
I think if these were tinted slightly to match the stock centre piece, they would look real nice

well that's much better. Still on the ugly side tho.



IMO the best look is either 99 or theorie's creation

I can guarantee you that with that few LED's it's not nearly going to be bright enough.

I've gone with theory's mod.

Let's bring this thread up one more time

Like many in here, I also don't like these ebay taillights however my 99spec taillight conversion didn't go as I planned due to the guy helping me rushing it and ruining it. You can't really tell when you first look at it but I know the minor stuff ups are there and it bugs me so I'm looking for an alternative.

Since ebay taillights are cheap I'm planning to buy a pair and tint them with black smoke overlays. I don't think anyone can tell the difference between ebay (w/ smoke tint) and oems during the day since they are both black.

I am just not sure if they will be bright enough at nighttime with black tints. Anyone tried this?

Above is kind of loud thinking, my plan b is just buying oem 99 specs and be done with it.
