Do you have LEDs in the rear signals? I have the same tail lights but just put a chrome bulb in there for now, did you have to wire in a resistor for the LED?

Grille looks good btw

I actually am using the stock bulbs because they're pretty bright already lol, I see it in my mirrors every night when I look at the poor guy behind me at the light. The tails came with resistors and I went ahead and ran extra wires to relocate the resistors as they didn't fit flush in the mount. Good tails imo, I was going to go for the depots first but I prefer the led configuration on these more

I'm pretty sure a led would look way better than the stock bulbs..I'm working on doing some kinda change to the tails, or I might just end up getting some depos or bragas..I love these tails but the thicker white part throws it off for me sometimes
