They should jus try to remake the whole light, instead jus taking a stock light and putting leds. IMO if you started from scratch you could make a sick tail light for example i would make the like 3 circles, 1 for parking, 2 for brake light, 3 (red) for turn signal, and the plastic over it would be red, or something like that.....i think if i had a computer graphic program i'd probably play around wit this idea

Guys any1 know if something like the tails on the g35 will come out? I am LOVING those LED circles. Where the taillight is in red LEDs (circle) and they light up brighter when you break. Red turn signal could be in the middle of the circl.. I think that would be amazing. What do you think?

Luxeon.

They are, but not easy to work with due to heat dissipation issues.

LEDs for the 01 Maxima AE

I would like them now, but only if they match the Maxima body design and are reasonably priced.

Nice job Metal! This is the best I've seen yet.

I like how everything is still symertical with a circular ring in an oval housing.

Dr. Roy

Are you still making some LED tails? I am looking for some for my Max but I want the black housing let me know ig you have some for sale or if you want I can ship you my Tail and you can work on that one... How long does it take, because my car is a show car and i am not driving it now I getting it ready for the show reason and I have some time left before it starts for me. So can you give me to prices one for you selling me the tails with the led and one if I ship you my tails and you do the work for me... Thanks
