C. Is the one in the pictures CF or is it painted?

D. Do you recommend LED tail light bulbs due to the difficulty of replacing bulbs after the cover is installed?

Thanks!

C. The one in the pictures in this particular thread is CF. Not painted.

D. This is a very good question and the thought never crossed my mind. Yes it will be somewhat difficult to replace your bulbs after you double-side tape the tail lights on. Maybe if you dont over do the tape, you should still be able to peel off. As you can see, the tail light cover WITHOUT tape sits pretty flush already. It just needs a bit of taping. Whether you want to go LE's or not is up to you. I didnt even know LED's were available.

Thanks Ken. Last questions...

E. If placed over '96-spec or converted "round" tail lights (as shown on the blue car), will the pattern of the openings in the cover eclipse any of the circles?

F. Why does the dumpster have "Sorry" spray painted on it?

E. I doubt it will eclipse any of the circles. The tail light cover follows the dark perimeter lines that are on your tail lights.

F. I have no idea. That's our neighbors trash.

i love what u guys did! it is noticable how much more flush it is, which somewhat upsets me that i already got an amemiya one. i think this would look great with 99 tails, thing about circles is you get the look of the 99 without paying haha. nice work it looks great!

umm, id want to still run a 99 spec wing, anyway you could get pics of it with that wing, its subtle enough that i think a wing would still look good, unlick the low profile light covers that double as a wing, and second, does anyone know were to get the led tail conversions for 99 spec tails? that way i would be able to tape it down, i like things to look clean and like they belong their, nice work shineauto, i think im gona get like 2,000 saved up and then just have you guys load a truck up and send it to my house, lol

I know Pre-auto has LED tails, but they don't look the same as stock lights I don't believe, the light placement is a little different IIRC. But Shine may have something too.

I dont think you need to remove your taillights to replace your bulbs........so you can tape down the tail light cover

You do have to remove the tail lights to replace the bulbs, and they slide out to the sides, so if you're going to tape down the cover, you'd better switch to LED bulbs. They have no filament to break and should theoretically last far longer than standard bulbs.

Looks like it is not as flush on the bottom, as that photo shows. Could be a camera trick.
