The outers were purchased from Carson. The inners were from D4auto something or other on ebay. My factory inners were faded and almost looked pink, so I can live (for now) with the colors being off

The plastic looks...ehem...cheap (sorry) and the round led pattern doesn't work...lost symmetry.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. I bought these lights about a month ago and they did not even work. It may have just been the set I got IDK. The vendor selling them said that has been a common problem with these particular lights. They do however look the best of any that I've seen. I've got a pair of the Wise style LEDs on the way.

I'm not a fan but for the price of these lights on ebay latley its almost a must do cuz the oem taillights cost almost as much, so why pay 300.00 for a pair of oem tails and with the JP Tails still in the 1k range its almost like a no option pickup of these lights...They'll grow on you over time. Enjoy.

the white balance is a bit off because the lights are pretty bright.

personally, these lights make the rear look a lot smaller at night while driving on the freeway.

Maybe you should disable the trunk lights because they don't match.

the inner lights looks terrible because they don't look led (at least in that picture)... what is "ricey" again?

I think the OEM style look good with the LED. The G35 look was meant for the G35 IMO. No offense to anyone. It was a hard decision for me but as BluLex said for the price it is like a no brainer.
