Has anyone installed the 11' tails on 06-08 as of yet? If so, any fitment issues?

ISF tails FTW- not a fan of the swoosh what so ever. Would have bought the ISF tails by now if didn't have to save money for new coil overs.

Yes, I believe the inner light housings are slightly bigger and the recessed hole on the car needs to be widened.

Thanks for that info.

I've heard that installing the inner 09' tails pretty much had the same problem and that hammering a tab would allow it to properly fit.

I'm pretty sure the turn signals are LED's as well, meaning you cannot put in stealth bulbs.

At night the '11 tails looks nice with the LEDs but during the day, I prefer ISF. :P

11' tails looks fresh by day, aggressive by night. It will probably grow on you eventually.

A noob question coming from an Acura owner:
I never thought it was legal for IS-F tails to have white turn signals?
