Tail lights...suggestions/comments???
Tail lights...suggestions/comments???
Hey guys,
I want to do one of the three following options but need advice/reccomendations. I have a Black on Black GS (certain tails look better on certain colors)
1. DIY clear out center area on my '00 tails (Labor and no money needed)
2. Purchase a set of used/new '01+ tails and DIY clear out bottom area (Labor and $200 +/-)
3. Buy the clear/red LED tails from Ebay. (If this option who makes the most quality setup?) (No labor needed and $200 - $250)
Whatcha think???

One solid piece...got it. Thanks guys. So now that leaves me to two options:
1. Clear out my '00 tails
-or-
2. Buy the Ebay ones
Not sure if I am crazy for the LED's yet. Anyone have pics on their rides yet (w/the Ebay ones)?

Bunch of members have done the LED ones. There are like 3 recent threads about it. Mine are coming in the mail. 
Maybe you should clear your stock tails and if you're not satisfied, get the LED ones.

I just bought my LED's. They're in the mail. Try to white out your and go from there. Another less expensive route...get a candy coat red spray and spray your tails so they're all red except your reverse light. Did it on my last car. you can get paint for under $10 and always ge tthe LEDs if you don't like it

They make the car seem older. Not too many things changed on the exterior of the GS from 00 to 01. Changing the lights makes it look newer. Just my opinion
Not only do they look newer but they look more refreshed. I think the older lights just had too much going on. I would say get the eBay lights.
