LED tails recommendation
Thank you! VANS JDM tail light paint is good stuff. Self leveling and very easy to use. I Just wanted a tint on the tails after that to match the light tint on the headlights. Ended up wrapping them with Laminx gunsmoke film.

They are acrylic on the top with LED's behind it and LED in the reverse and turn signal. I just posted my pics to give the OP a ideal of what they look like on a car and lite up don't want to change the topic . If you have questions on purchasing a set send me a DM.

To me, they look no different in quality than any of the other ones.

BRAGA type-3 tails are a little more renown and are one of the best styles for our cars IMO. just recently acrylic tailights are getting more and more popular. those are more a custom job though. GL with the hunt!
also, Depo makes a 4 row style similar to Braga but not the same
Eagle Eyes site:
http://www.eagleeyes.com.tw/en/products_detail-9335 - Smoked
http://www.eagleeyes.com.tw/en/products_detail-9337 - Clear
Too bad you can't order just 1 set directly from their site. You'd have to be a distributor as their minimum order qty is 100 sets!
Here's a place that's selling them in the US: http://eliteautostyle.com/Products/t...8-05-lexus-gs/
They are $500 New for either clear or smoked.
You can also try asking the guys at Central Pine: http://www.centralpine-usa.com/
They often bring in used JDM ones and are about $300 plus shipping.
If you want to brave it, you can buy new or used ones directly from Yahoo Auctions Japan, it's similar to ebay but since ebay is not in Japan anymore Yahoo Auctions is all that's left. You would have to use a proxy bidding service for a fee to bid on Yahoo Auctions thou.

Can't get these thru normal channels anymore... I believe they've ended production long ago.
But you should be able to find used ones on Yahoo Auctions Japan or eBay.
I just did a quick search on eBay and found this....

You have to be a little bit creative when you're searching. You have to use "JDM" or "JZS161", or "Aristo", etc.... to find old used parts like these lights.
Good Luck!

I have a set of the acrylic/LED tails and absolutely love them and always get compliments
