It's a new tail light design that was just released. Here's some more photos:

Spark plugs changed out, I think these were the originals. I bought the car with 32k on it, and currently has 60k.
Finally installed the RR strut bar and trimmed the side covers.

Liking the look of the more minimal engine covers. Do wonder how much trade off there is in terms of getting up to temp vs holding in excess heat once it's at temp with different configs.

Here's the link. Use code SCOTT20 to save $20 USD: https://www.archaic-direct.com/produ...-through-light

Best deal out there. HC Motion is selling them for $649.99 USD on eBay, so this is $120 USD cheaper and fully legit.

Nice!....was looking at these last week my friend out in L.A. sent me some screen grabs contemplating for his F as well. I was thinking of going this route, nice to see them on your car😎..............how was the install of the center light portion that goes across the trunk?

Thanks man. I like the way they look, but photos don't tend to fully do them justice. It will look a lot better once I get my spoiler from Japan too. Definitely give them a try. You've got nothing to lose

The install was very easy. Everything is bolt on and the lightbar sits nicely across the trunk without any modifications necessary. It is a very rigid piece of plastic and is one whole assembly with the trunk lamps, so it makes fitting it a breeze.

Here's some more photos I just took:

Nothing beats a classic, but it's nice to mix things up every once in awhile

Buy them from here instead, a lot cheaper. If you use the code SCOTT20 you can save an extra $20 USD, making them $529.90 USD shipped. Works out to be $120 USD cheaper than the Amazon link above:
