Default Tail lights...what about these?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/02-03...13588856QQrdZ1

Does anyone have pics of these installed on the blue xB?

Have you heard anything good or bad about them?

Is the price decent?

Cheers!

it's the older model of TYC tails, with shipping it'll come out to $105, i personally don't think it's worth it

the only tails I'd put on my box is the Anzo LED tails in black, but since I am poor I just put on some $40 smoke overlay, pics can be seen in my profile

Yeah, they are quite expensive for as inexpensive as they loog, but the stock ones have got to go IMO.

I like the basic look of them, but I do agree they are a bit overpriced for $105...Id go $75 total for them myself, but most of the other styles are WAY overpriced....$178+ for tails...geesh, thats nuts.

Anyone have any good links to non-ebay sites selling tails?

that information is actually incorrect CKGuY914. those are knockoffs of the Fabulous/Hitman tails from Japan .

the first Gen TYCs look like the Garson/Rushwork n tails I believe. ( I dont have a pic on me right now. all my bB stuff is at my other house).

those are nice Don. those look almost exactly like the Kohrin/Crossroad tails from Japan. kinda what TYC ripped off for the 2nd version. the ones you posted i think look better than TYC though

Being knockoffs, is there a real difference in quality? I think these look pretty good color matched to BSP or PW. I am considering this for my TCM just for kicks....

not that i know if Rico. I have the Rushwork tails, and this past week, i got to compare them to Helix ( a local company bought a set for their fleet car) and there is no difference in them. i feel like an **** that i paid too much for basically same thing.

colormatched, these would be hot on your car. then again, your car is my background right now (i hope you dont mind) so I am a little biased

haha thanks man, that's cool! My car is totally plain, but the wheels are definitely love it or hate it...lol

Now that I think of it, MyBoX has (or had?) the colormatched tails. If the lenses were crystal instead of frosted, or better yet, had LED, I'd def get a set. But $105 shipped is not too bad, I wonder how much the paint would cost?
