Picked these up at a car show Saturday. Went in very easy , and looks GREAT on my black truck!! I don't know if I got a "show special" or not but I picked them up at a Streetgear vender for $191 with tax!!. I have seen them for as much as $250 at shops aruond here , and AutoZone had a pair for a chevy for $250 that were chrome. The carbons were always about $20 more than the chrome ones. They have a web site if you guys want to look 'em up.
www.streetgearonline.





Let me know what you guys think!!

DakotaDan , Howdy got a pair of chrome ones for his silver truck too. We were there together and got them at the same time. Chrome ones looks AWSOME on a silver truck like yours!!And he will be at the meet to! So I guess what I'm saying is take his NOT mine, hehe!! (just kidding Rodney!!)

About the clear corners , I don't know. I would like to see 'em on a SLT with all the chrome. I was afraid it would look "too much" up front. Do you know of any SLT pictures with them on?

Hey Ken, this is what I do. Before buying any appearance mods, I use photoshop to see what they will look like first, then I can decide whether I like them or not.

I am about to try throwing it out the window!!hehe. I was going to e-mail you about Mac. Have you had any problems with it?

Do you have time to "photoshop" a pic for me?

Sorry to hear about your computer problems Ken. My Mac runs really well for what I use it for. It's an iMac, about 2 years old. You can pick one up for around $500-$600. I updated my browser a couple of weeks ago, so I'm not having any internet problems at all. What I really like about Mac is that it seems more stable. At work, we run G3 & G4 graphic stations. It's easier to load the software and much easier to do file management than the PCs we had previously. To each his own though, lots of people would disagree with me.
Sure, I can photoshop a pic for you.
BTW, the tail lights look really good :)

Picked mine up for $150 off Ebay. CF Altezza tails. I've seen them around the internet for aroun $160-$250 depending on where you look. The Chrome ones can be bought for under $150 all the time off Ebay, and usually retail around $140 at most online stores.

Are those fake carbon fiber? I know some places apply the carbon fiber pattern to some of them. I think the chrome ones are just plain ugly. ProCarParts.com has the carbon fiber tail lights for $189.99. Not sure what the shipping on those is though.

No their , NOT real carbon fiber , but they look good , and the real thing would cost ALOT more than I would spend.

And , like I tell my wife when she says "Oh , like you can't tell hers are fake!!"..

"hey If I can see 'em and feel 'em....there real enough for me!!!"

Then she promptly informs my that I CAN"T!!!

I got a VERY bad look when I said ..."why not? There not REAL!!!! hehe.

Lesley , thanks alot! Those clear corners look good on the truck! Rats , now I want 'em!!! Man , shes gonna kill me!!! hehe

Just put them on. If you don't like them, then take them off. It was a 5 min swap.

hey, DakotaDan, I'll have one eye on you and one on my tail lights Mr.:-) The chrome ones look real good on the silver. $170.00 for 'em. I've though about the clear corners too. I'd like to see 'em on silver first though! Anyone hook me up with a pic of 'em. I'll have to have Ken load up a pic of my apc chrome taillights, so you can see 'em. And remember, HANDS OFF!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, what does the group think about tail/ corner lights for a Red SXT (grey trim). Let me know. I won't bother asking my fiance', even though she has all the fashion sense in the relationship, i just don't think she would understand.
thanks.
