Aerotect Tailight red outs
Those of you who have installed these, is the color fairly uniform or is it a lot darker then the rest of the tailight, from the pics on here it is hard to tell? Some look uniform, some look much darker than the rest of the tailight?

i dont specifically have the aerotect redouts but i have seen a bunch of pictures. It looks a little darker then the rest of the light. I instead ordered the rvinyl universal red outs which some members have already. you can get it cheaper then the aerotect ones also...just my .02

i just got mine today.. they are perfect match.. the only bad thing about the aerotect ones is that it isnt wide enough to cover the inner(closest to the trunk) part of the tailight.. so youll have a small slit of orange showing if you open the trunk

The Aerotec ones are much darker than the rvinyl ones. I bought both to see them side by side before I put them on. The rvinyl ones are a much better match. Also just do a search to see some pics. You can tell for yourself.

you really cant determine the match by using camera pics... the camera darkens the vinyl.
if you really want to get a good match.. buy both and and see for yourself. i think the aerotect ones are fine

obviously you havent purchased a set of aerotect vinyl..
if you guys are going just by pictures.. you have no say in this matter as cameras make it appear darker.. buy a set yourself and you will see that they are a perfect match to the rest of the tailight.

I have rvinyls and they are a perfect match as far as i can tell. I have not seen areotech's but they do look darker in the pics. Several people have posted pics of rvinyls and they've all come out very good, including mine.
and cutting it yourself is not hard at all.

Aerotect
For $25/ no shipping or tax, and they include the front fog light covers along with the rear tail light reds, you just can't go wrong. The redout in back is definitely a bit darker, but those blue foglight covers fit perfectly and add a very cool touch. A great, inexpensive, non time consuming mod.
