What do you think these would look like? [I have a titanium MSP]
They're a bit different from stock, although nothing spectacular.

Just curious; haven't seen too many tail light threads around here, and I'm sort of wondering what to do. The stock ones are fine, but....I'm leaning towards getting something different.

What else fits?
Anybody have any they would like to show/brag about?

I think they are decent one of the only decent set of tails for the MSP in my opinion i would just rather keep the stock ones but they aren't bad

I like mine. They look great lit up and they fit perfectly. It's a much more modern look, IMO. They look good enough that most people don't even notice you have aftermarket tails unless they really know Proteges, which is what I was shooting for.

yeah the other thread was the one i started. i ended up getting them and i didn't like them much at first but they've been growing on me. i think they look really good on silver though. thats why i got them was after seeing pharmacyMSP's car (in pic). not sure about titanium though......

these pics were taken last night....

That first pic looks great, the lights go well with the CF trunk.

actually i think they look WAY too bright. i thought they would look great after seeing them on the blue msp in that other thread but once i put them on my car i was like WHAO!!!!!!! I figure its because laser blue is a super bright color and that guy had a blue trunk so it was just brightness everywhere. on mine theres only blue on one side and the other side is the dark of the carbon fiber. a few of my friends agree with me on it being way to bright. so im thinking of tinting them a little to see if i like them more. they're real nice at night when the tails light up though. the first day i put them on me and my gf were lookin at them and were both kinda like "eh.........they're ok i guess" but whenever she was following me later that night she called me and was like "hey cheer up, the lights look awesome at night!"

Thx i didn't get to much when i first bought them... no one said much, but i really like how subtle they are like not "HEY LOOK AT MY PIMP TAILS!" more like "these could be stock but they look so damn good"

Yeah that's why I got those tails also, because they could almost be stock... I live by the water, that's why there's a dock in front of where my car is parked!

yeah, i'm a crook :D

no in all honesty the company i buy them from charges me far more than $90 even at my cost, so i cannot list them much lower even if i wanted to
