Rears look too dark IMO...can't even make out the circular tail lamps in broad daylight. The tail lamps are a nice feature of the '05's and up (IMO)...clearly you'll see them when they light up, but sitting still, just doesn't look right.

while it looks really cool, i think this is a retarded thing to do. decreasing the visible light reflecting out is illegal in most states. If you get rear ended, it could be succesfully argued that your light overlays were the cause of the driver not seeing your tail lights and hitting you.

I agree. Bat's GTR's are still my #1 choice.

i left at 3pm and had a lunch appointment with a client of mine -- it was parked at the dealership all day before that. i'm at work all day long today

as far as getting rear ended there is enough light output from the LED lights as compared w/ all the cars out there that don't have LED output. and anyone can have a law suit for causing an accident from tinted windows or even a graduation tassle hanging from your rearview mirror to a portable navigation or sirius radio transmitter sitting ont he windshield obstructing your view. i'm not a lawyer but i've heard all these stories of finding something obstrued
