Default taillights upgrade

I currently have 07 is350, and my friend just bought a is250. She doesn't really care about her car, so i asked her if i could trade her taillights for mine. I didn't want to lie to her saying that my taillights are worth same as hers. How much cash you guys think I should give her + my taillights?

Thanks

personally I like the older tails better (up to 08'), especially when it's red-out.

If she really doesn't care about her car and doesn't mine trading tails; why not just trade straight up? I'm assuming she has the 09+ tail lights. Those are about a grand on sewell. How much you want to give her is ultimately up to you.

Disregard females and acquire currency.
Best advice you'll ever hear from me.

Just convince her the older tails look better and that, being the nice guy you are, will swap with her for free.
