So i had my tail lights smoked the other day and just put them back on my car. The lights themselves look amazing. Although i don't think thats the case with a silver car now that i see them on my car. If anyone wants to swap let me know. If you live in Arizona Awesome. If not that's ok as well.

wow that is really dark? is that 20%? or lower?
i have an ASM too, but was thinking somewhere along the lines of 50% just for a light tinge of darkness. i don't know how you'd go about getting the lights on the JDM trunk replaced though.

I don't know what percent they are. They guy said he did two coats on the lights. He said one coat wasn't enough. Now as far as getting the lights my brothers stationed in Japan so he will just send me a new set of lights.

I don't know i don't like it but people are telling me i need wheels to set it off or i could do a black carbon fiber roof to offset the lights but i dont have like $5000 to fork out.

Hopefully you won't ever bre rear-ended by someone, as they will have a very legitimate argument that: "I couldn't see this guys' lights!".

And you have also significantly lowered the brightness of the reverse lights too, hopefully this won't cause you to run into something while backing up!

Actually to both yours and my surprise they light up really well. So do the reverse lights but i already bought new tail lights so these ones are up for grabs if anyone wants them.
