The ebay version looks great. It looks better than my USDM IS-F tails especially when lit.

Very nice. Ebay ones are a super good deal with the MS live cashback offer.

The ebay ones look good at night...driving and seeing it from behind...to me it gives off a totally different look all together.

the bulbs you can buy yourself. the only thing i'd be worried about would be fitment and how well it lines up.

ebay ones look great though. this seems like a great alternative for those wanting to get the IS-F taillights instead of redouts. much cheaper.

I don't like it, it reminds me of those aftermarket lights on old cars.
