I like em. I'm not sure how they would look on a dark color, but they sure do look nice on white. Much nicer than the ricer looking Altezzas. Very classy I'd say.
Does anyone know of any websites that have nice taillight kits? Something thats different from what anyone else has.

Smoked lights look good on dark cars, and cleared stocks look good on white...ok smoked looks good on more than dark colors. I haven't seen them on any other colors yet.
Im not too sure they have other tail lights for our cars...other than clearing the stocks or switching them to "the rice effect".
If anyone finds anything, post it...I'd like to see

It does look nice. I think I'm going to put a light tint on mine, I'm just a little worried about inspection. I might get a set from a junk yard and keep them on hand for just that. Sorry guys, I happen to think smoked looks good on white cars, too.

They do look good on white cars too.....
Not sure about the clear stocks on dark cars though, cause I only seen them on white and silver.

No, I would not put clears on a dark car, I just don't see that looking good at all.

Nice job!!!
That's exactly how I want mine. Not too dark, but enough to look good.

I used Nite shades, I think I did two good coats. they looked a lot darker at first (to the point I thought Id have to buy new ones) but after a few days and a car wash or two, they lightened up and have since stayed like that.

There is a certain resistor that needs to be wired in-line. Not sure what it is tho. Basically your LED pull less load and cause the relay to flip on and off fast. so either you have to make that relay think it has a load or get a relay that requires less load...if possible......led's are the devil.
