At least opt for some quality LEDs to put in there. Curt is the man to talk to for those.

IMO - the glossy look that JHizzle posted looks much cleaner.

yeah they come off the car easily.

On another notethe more I look at them the more I like it. At first I thought glossy would look better too but after looking at ones like jhizzles post it doesn't flow with the car to me. All the black on the car is matte black. Then you throw on glossy tinted rials and it just screams JDM. I don't like the shiny chrome and such. My engine bay is all black. My trim is color matched or matte black. So why would I start with the tails being glossy? Glossy just looks off to me now. I am going to see how I feel about this after giving it some time, but for now I am starting to dig it more and more.

I think my wheels scream "fix me" even more though. Mitt powdercoat them flat black now...

hahahah nonoffense taken! I hate that little button I really do!

And while I'm posting I'll add an addendum to my previous post. If I get some wet carbon piece like I would like to do, hood and trunk, then glossy will look hella better. But as my car stands right now I prefer aggressive over "bling" and glossy screams "bling" right now.
