It's sold as the whole set, not just the LEDs strips which you then replace...will try to take some night pic soon. In the meantime, here's one with the lights turned on.

IMO all clear (smoked) looks kinda cheap. I'll take the 1st one. Basically it's an all LED IS-F style taillights. But $300+ is too pricey. I'd rather spend it on something else. Really nice though!

I rather spend my money on these lights for $300 which is a complete set than $540 for just the outer ISF lights. But honestly I will not spend either amount to change out the rear lights. IMO, they are perfect the way they are.

I've been thinking about making something like that that for myself. The one thing I don't like about the ones posted is that the outer and inner pieces don't seem to match. the inners are 2 diverging rows. While the outer are 3 parallel rows

Compared to buying is-f corners for almost $600 or something i can buy an entire set with clear turn signals for $300 or so it's a no brainer for me i would buy the 1st set not the smoked.

Here's hoping 3IS is all LED except for the HIDs. Anyone seen the LED DRLs on the new Audi's in person? Those things are crazy visible from a long way off in bright sunlight.

I agree with others that the smoked ones are a little ricey looking, but the first pic looks good.

agree, they should make the outer 2 rows of LEDs.

I think they all look like crap. Not OEM at all. OEM IS-F FTW or red outs on the amber OEM ones. Everything else makes the car look riced out.

They are, minus the turn signal and reverse light. These just have a different LED pattern.

Would need to see them in person. The smoked ones look pretty sick on black.
