looks pretty good! It does look funny with the red ones in the bottom. If you are interested i have a set of red ones tinted black that would match your tails. Im selling them really cheap. Here is my thread on it: HERE

thanks but I am actually looking for clear ones if anyone knows where I can get some?? I think the clear would match the clear on the taillights better...just my opinion tho...and thanks for the pic comments

nice job bro! I thought should I leave the little square reverse light untouched just as you did but I was afraid it would look awkward so i went ahead an blacked it out. Take a look!

looks ok. Too much black though, there should be a little more contrast... made a lighter shade of black would look better IMO.
