I have had those. They look great. Only problem I had with mine are the taillight covers tend to get dirt and dust between the light lens and the blackout cover. Need to take the cover off to clean. If you wash your car often, you will be taking them off almost every time. Maybe some sort of seal on the cover would work to keep the dust to a minimum.

I had blackouts like your asking at first and they are ok, but after i decided to have my lights tinted i am alot happier with looks. Here is a couple pics showing tinted vrs the same peices your looking at. I did find to its alot easier to keep the tinted lights clean

My 2 cents says spend the extra and have them tinted you will like them much better.
I had forum supporting vendor Tyler@stealthvettes do mine and was very happy with service from him/

tinted





covers like the ones on the famous auction site

I had Tyler@stealthvettes tint mine and if I had to do over I would not have him do it. I wouldn't recommend him to anybody, but that is just my 2cents
