tail lights----> yay or nay?
im in the middle of messing around with my USDM tails. this is not the finished product but while im on my way to the finished product, im taking pics of what options, different looks, i have. the tails are not sealed yet as to why you still can see the glue. so is it a yay or a nay at this point in the process?

There was a member here who did that to our tail lights for about 30 bucks but you had to ship him your lights. This was like 4 yrs ago or so? he prob isn't around anymore.

Either way looks really cool.
What color is the car? That would factor into the decision I think. However, I don't know how well a clear bulb would look in the red/brake area when illuminated. If they made red bulbs it might could work.
I love LEDs but it would look odd because the LEDs would be in one centralized area -even if you have reflectors in there, the aftermarket LEDs never quite look as good as LEDs that come from the factory. Also, since these are brake lights you're dealing with, it would not be wise to compromise safety with something that doesn't light up as well as standard bulb.
