Default Does anyone have clear taillights like this?

This is kind of a crappy photoshop but I wanted to see how the clear tail lights looked on a SGM color. This is the look I think I'm going to try out.
Does anyone here already have a similar set up with these clear tail lights?

I remember one IS from the middle east (I think?) that had those tails... It's was a non-US color (a dark gold like color). Haven't seen pics in a while though. Didn't look bad.

I think I saw one person with that type of tail light, it was okay. Most consider it too ricey.

Probably would look ok if you tinted the tails, not a fan of how it looks like that though.

I know i've seen a pic of someones car here with those tails i'm sure....

More than $100 cheaper on ebay for the same ones.

This thread discusses a few Aftermarket Taillights and someone posted a video on the last page of lights similar to the ones you're referring to.

I'm not a fan of them but to each his or her own!

Don't forget the coupon code "TAILLIGHTS5OFF" - 5% isn't much, but every bit counts!

ijulmimi? Nope, he's from Brunei, he owns an IS300 though.

Pretty sure the color is available in the US, it's just nobody likes it.

With light smoke over the lens I think it would look pretty cool and different.

The color combo has already been used on the rx350s, I think the 08s. I think it gives the gray a nice neutral look, especially with black wheels.

I just bought a set of these, which look like the same item CARiD sells. Thanks to Amazon's one-day shipping for $3.99, I will get them tomorrow and post some pictures.
