Early christmas present, from araffio clause (*pictures*)

What a great guy.. can't thank you enough tony, twice over. I wanted to do something different from tony's tail lights, but keep the same badasss led feel obviously. Check it out..

Close-up of the inner tail light with LED mounted..

Brakes lit up only..

Blinkers lit up only..

Night time shot showing the parking lights only..

Comparison with blinkers/parking/brakes all lit up..

Again thanks to tony for all his hard work on these lights, unreal how awesome these are and how many compliments I get about them. Hopefully some corners are in the mail already, hahaha... jk.

Looks nice.. probably a decent amount of man hours went into that. If only I had the time, and a 4th gen...

Am I on crack, or have I seen these pics up before in another thread?

Whats the difference between having the blinkers lit and the parkign lights? Do a different set of lights come on when you signal or something? Looks perfect.

Thanks for all of the compliments. The stock blinkers just house my strobes now. The blinkers are the outside "chunks" of LEDs, the brakes are the inside "chunks" of the inner and outter tail lights and then the rest of the inner tail light is the parking lights.

I guess I owe araffio, it's not like I won't get him back though.

for ten bucks i think it really doesn't matter what brand it is. If it looks the same and does the exactly same thing without having THE name... who cares! oh, wait, show off... lol
