I'm with the rest of the guys (girls too?). I like the idea but don't like the arrows. Also, the lines on the outside and the circle on the inside are too contrasting. When I first saw the pic, I thought the brakes where on. I'd try to find a way to have the lines for parking lights and have the brake lights and turn signals be round (having the brake circles shine in the middle of the lines would be cool...so have lines on both tail pieces).

Just my 2 cents. But very nice custom work...sets you apart for sure...

I think you did a nice job on the tails...overall it turned out nice, even the turn signals...now how u got raped at .60 cents x 302 LEDs....that was dumb j/k you shoulda checked ebay....much cheaper...

That was my first idea. When I sketched it out I didn't like the way it looked...

I think i saw you in brooklyn on Ave X and McDonnald a couple of weeks ago. If it wasn't u....there's another max with turn signal arrows. I personally like the arrows. The only things that clash are the circles. I would go with straight lines.

I actually just finished them this past weekend so that wasn't me.

I think it looks pretty funny to have the arrows.
However, it is very creative and cool, just because of that.
Keep up the good work, man.

looks good, but i seriously don't know about the arrows. you might want to just do it like the g35's. the arrows are a bit cheezy. but nice ideas and efforts you've got right there.

should've checked out the GD on LED's. I believe 50 ambers were 4 bucks only and reds were around 7. Make the arrows like thsi <<<<< and make them red. A universal pattern is nice and clean and try to fill up the whole lense. A lil pattern in there just looks dumb and ugly

I'm done working on them. I'm at school now so I have nowhere to work on them and no time. To each his own, the arrows are mine

u get an A+ for creativity and orginality but i can see it already that you'll get mixed feelings about the turn signals. They can be thought of as a rice mod but i definitely applaud u for great creativity. Thinking off the dome i dont know what else could look better than the 4 solid straight lines across....
