I like how you can still see the outline for the reverse lights. That's pretty clean.

You must be referring to me. They're visible at night. It's day time that's the problem. If you smoke your tails, be prepared to buy a bunch of LED bulbs because the stock bulbs are way too dim, especially on the 92-94 tails. I may mod my 97's, but I doubt I'll ever black out taillights again unless the car is white or something.
