Help Me Pick Taillights

Post by SOHCKing03 » Tue Aug 12, 2008 11:44 pm

So the other day I got pulled over for my right brake light not working and the cop said my other light was really dim. And I have been pulled over for "defective merchandise" for my tinted taillights so I took off the tint. Now I want to get new taillights rather than tinting them again. Black is pretty much the theme for my car so both these options have black.

Vote for which one you think would look best on a black car!

I agree that the second ones look fancier but I'm not sure if I want the chrome on my car. Granted, it is only a small amount of chrome but still. I'm leaning towards the second set but I wanna see more opinions.

I once owned both of them but I would have to say that I liked 2nd ones the best..

The second set looks better. They look nicer and are sometimes cheaper than the first set.

I'd say number two as well. It doesn't scream 'cheap' as much as the first one. I've got the cf version of number two.

Tinted stock tails is where it's at. If I had to pick from the 2, I would say the 2nd set but tinted. Tint just makes the rear look sexy.

Lol the BUX ones you have would be amazing! However, I
know they aren't cheap, $100 and Ill take them ahaha.

The ones posted by sidepipe are nice too.They are probably top on my list right now behind the BUX.

-Brad

EDIT:

Yup Scott I went to your thread again... and fell in love with the BUX again lol. One light coat of Niteshade on those things would look so sick.

White body, black hood, black projectors, black shorty eyelids, civic lip, black roof, black trunk, black AVS spoiler, and BUX light tinted tails... MEGA BONER!!!

My car is no where near rice.

Ordered the taillights though. I'll post up pics of which ones I got when they arrive rather than telling you guys.

Now on to the next mod...
