No experience with them, but just looking at the pic, not really feeling it. But that is just my personal opinion.

If these are a quasi "Lambo" tailight wouldn't the Chevrons point Outwards instead of inwards like the Spec lights do? Guess the design loses something in translation
Why would a company post ads that put themselves in a less than intelligent position by posting photos that are either, an uniformed manufacturer or just bad advertising by posting tailights in the reverse order.

I feel like I saw these posted here before. Nobody likes them. However, if you do, go for it.

If you "go for it" with them... you have courage. 👍

I'm not one to stray far from stock tail lights, but if I did I'd have to give a hard NO on those.

Looks like bible camp study group: big spoon, little spoon.

I guess the caption below the Spec D logo in the ad sums it up; WARNING: Cancer and Reproductive Harm

Thinking the same thing. The lights on the website car have to be installed backwards or upside down. Whatever it is, it's wrong.

Yeah I definitely thought they were wrong on the install pic. I'm INTRIGUED, but not enough to spend the money on them.

I was just looking at these but found them on vivid racing for 213 bucks with their sale going on. I haven't heard from anyone about them though.

Seems like someone was listening.

If you go to Sec D website it currently depicts the Lambo style orientation of the light spears. Pointing outwards.
