Pics don't do the 78works tails justice! Wish I could grab the true color without it being blown out. These lights completely transform the backend of the F IMO

On bags #airlift suspension
Just like the way the wheels were illuminated by the traffic
Dammit man! Stop posting pics of your car! Prior to seeing this I was perfectly happy with my stock wheels. And my stock tails. And my naked bumper... Seriously though, she is looking sexy.

Yeah, I'm surprised I like the tails with the white accents as much as I do. I a vacuum, I wouldn't have thought I'd like them. But I think the lighter color of your VMRs just really sets off those tails well...

^^^^^^^^^^Agreed, that's exactly what I thought when I saw a pic of a similar combo from 78 works and thought it flowed well with the wheels!

I know the white bar version is kind of loud and really stands out, but I love the way it flows with the VMR's!

All about execution and you pulled it off. I'm a red wheel fanatic and have been for a decade. It too is a VERY subjective mod haha, but can look amazing if done right. In your case the tails flow very well with the car, and like you said I think would also look great on a SFP F.

You know what I'm going to say......................... Hell yes!!! They completely transform the backend of the F.......do it

If not for whatever reason, I don't think you'll have an issue selling them.

BTW I don't think there are too many differences between the 78works and the Spec D's? I heard that 78works came out with theirs first then Spec D came out with their version afterwards, but they look the same, but are two different companies from what I understand?

Ok. thanks for the kick in the *** as to getting me to install these bad boys. will post pics of the install. from what i saw in the installation guide they look its a plug and play. if not i'll have to buy some plugs to make them connect like OEM. that shouldn't be an issue. will be installing these next week, since i'll be on vacation from work.
