Haven't uploaded any pics in a while so thought I'd throw a few up:



Night out at car meets with dc_guy
Doing my E30 Blend

Pics don't do the 78works tails justice! Wish I could grab the true color without it being blown out. These lights completely transform the backend of the F IMO

On bags #airlift suspension
Just like the way the wheels were illuminated by the traffic

I like the updated style, but would prefer them to just be candy red lenses with the oled innards.

Yea the white bar version is not everyone's cup of tea. But I love the way they look against the USB though and are my favorite version

They have 3 or 4 different versions/styles that you can choose from

Will check em out. Thanks! Tails on this car definitely look dated compared to the headlights which at least have led strips on the later MY.

The OE red option looks great, plus you get the updated feel of LED tails. Digging these actually. How's the timing of the turn signals relative to the front do you know?

Pics for reference in case anyone is curious.

If you use the updated relay the F & R flash at the same rate.

You know I didn't know until you asked that^^^^^^^.............so I just went out to the garage and checked and they seem to blink at the same time. Besides the difference of the incandescent & led blinking (incandescent glow longer) they seem to be about the same.

Yea I hear ya, like I said in my post above with the pics they aren't everyone's cup of tea style wise, but some do like this style on the F. I think it updates the backend big time!

They are very JDM stylistic wise and words or pics don't do these lights justice, you have to see them in person and when they're lit to appreciate the style and lighting upgrade they give to the backend of the F!

My 2 cents

Thank you! I just checked out your build thread, you've done a really great job of modding yours! I have my calipers the same, the yellow Brembo decal over black looks fantastic!
