Default New Black Cherry light mods

I spent the weekend replacing all my lights with Black Cherry leds

I think that they look a lot better than the red and they blend better with the AE Red.

Black Cherry Taillights
Black Cherry 3rd Brake Light
Black Cherry Rear Markers
Black Cherry Reverse Lights

Not a big fan of the Black Cherry's in general, but they do look better on some colors than they do on others. Yours is one of them.

Looks great!

One of my pet peeves are tail light blackouts that reduce the light output from the tail and especially the brake lights.

The Black Cherry LED's are as bright or brighter than stock and until LED's became available that wasn't possible.
