Default looking for advice on tail lights

Hi guys, I was thinkin of getting these TYC lights. I was wondering about your experiences with TYC as far as leaking, etc. Have heard good things about this company as most tail lamps are prone to fogging. Looking for opinion and advice. thank you

Just so you know...you'll get a lot of people saying, "don't buy them, they're ugly"...which I agree they are ugly and I wouldn't do it. But it's your car. I'm not sure about the quality of TYC...but with any aftermarket product, there is always the great possibility of the quality not being great.

My advice...stay with the stock tails.

I've heard good things about TYC, at least with their headlights (many coming from accord owners). As for the tails, wish I could help you. At least they aren't chrome and I think that they're street legal (as opposed to the other tails that are manufactured). And if you do plan on color matching it to the car, then it might look a little decent.

If you'd paint them body color, I think that wouldn't look too shabby.

the pic of the one in the background actually looks half decent with the paint matched.

i still wouldnt do it, but if you have to, i'd do that. no fake CF.
