    New tails installed

    I had condensation in one of my OEM taillights and saw these on ebay nice and inexpensive. They don't have LEDs but I liked the design and they were less than $70 for the pair! Good fitment on the sides, matches the lines of the car. Sits a touch proud at the rear but very minor. Overall I like them, looks like it could have been factory, and the seller shipped quick.

    I'm so glad those aren't the egay altezza lights... These actually look pretty good for an aftermarket set.

    Have u thought about tinting jus the red? In my opinion that would look pretty good. They look nice untouched though.

    They're a touch darker than the OEM red. I could niteshade it to get it darker but the chrome bottom section goes well with my chrome rims, I wouldn't want to go too dark.

    Now throw some LED bulbs in there. They look good.

    Best thing to do with these aftermarket housings is to seal them again with clear silicone for extra protection against condensation.

    Another problem with aftermarket is that many times they end up getting pitted.
