although i think the taillights themselves look nice, for some reason they look really awkward and ugly on the tc. the psed tails with cleared top and red bottom looks good and i would get them, the problem with those is the reverse light needs to be cleared.

While I like the stock ones and think they look good as well.......these TYCs could have been designed to look better, but at the same time they do blend in well with the clear 3rd brake light and front headlights.

While looking at the lights themselves, they are whack.

While taking a step back and looking at the whole car, they blend pretty well with the rest of it.

PS, I'll take the girl in the middle please

Ok, here is what I like about the lights. I do like both of the Photoshoped pictures that Darkness submitted I think either would be nice but also include the option of the Smoked lenses. I was also wondering since LEDs are already part of the design does anyone think that by making all of the lights/light sources LEDs is too busy or crowded?

Agreed wit what he said. The red reflector looks better when its cut out like that and clear on the one end. I Definatly dont think the Amber turn signal is attractive at all.. Their red right now. Shoulda stayed that way

The LEDs are red, not white. And you're allowed clear lights like that. I mean like there are tail lights made that are clear where it's just red bulbs under clear housing, like that one Lexus SUV.

I dont' like them. They should be darker, and the amber has to go. Maybe claer or smoke with a chrome bulb that lights amber. And I dont' like the red stripe either. I don't think I like anything about it, except for the fact that it is different then stock. But I would not say it is an improvement. No.

You can't have the reflector white. I don't think he was talking about the LED's

ooooh ok, you're talking about the red part that i cut off right? Well that wouldn't be a reflector, the red part would be, the part of the reflector that i cut off would just like, increase the size of the reverse light housing, or just nothing at all.

He is right. It is the Lexus RX 330. which replaces the RX 300. I worked for Lexus.. The lights are ALL CLEAR!!

And also. They dont have to make that clear part a reflector. It can just be clear like the rest of the tail light. Doesnt have to have a bulb there or reflector. They can simply have the red part the reflector ( which I think he intented to chop it that way)
