Eh, maybe a couple other pictures in the light... I like the carson better overall, but the darker area does flow with the car.

They look good especially for that price. I like that the smoked part on the eBay lights is shorter than the clear part on the Carson lights.

They would probably look better on a different color car though.

which lights up better? the ebay one or the wise?

yeah truthfully, I like the wise one better, it contrast more on a black car.

1sckvc, please dispell the myth for us once and for all. Check on the tailight housing to see if it's branded. If it's made by Sonar then the quality of those pieces should be just as good as the JP/Wise tails everyone has, and everyone here can stop calling them ebay tails...lol.

If it is made by Sonar, maybe we can start calling it "the tails that JP is gonna start carrying soon, but cost 2-3x more than ebay ones"

They probably are good quality, we're just saying that to distinguish the two lol.

The ebay ones look classier and more elegant/understated.
