personal preference, so you don't have to understand.

a lot of people don't even understand why we would buy lexus when a toyota runs just fine...

Some questions we might not ever have the answers to

I'll tell you what though... if i had $1200, i'd be buying the JP tail lights as we speak!
You would be far better off having spent that $$$ on 2 more cylinders...LOL

Only true Lexus enthusiasts will know the value of JP tails. The average Joe on the street will not realize how exclusive those lights are. Heck, the 05 Camry has JP style tail lights. Everyone has their own preference when it comes to what to spend their cash on.

and i just bought a set of 01+ tails and installed them last week lol..anyway, not sure if im getting along side these yet or not...will have to hear of some members experiences with them first i guess....i wonder now though, is the CL GS classifieds forum going to be flooded up with these 01+ tails for like half the price now with people wanting these "new" ones? ill definitely cry if that happens after i just spent $275 shipped on mine..oh well, such is life!

so since these are led, doesn't that mean the two lights on the trunk would need to be replaced with led ones to make them match?
