Solid red would look good, but that would render reverse lights useless.

Default Photoshopped Tails...LED and Fiber Optic

I know this thread is old, but I just wanted to add in somewhere instead of wasting space with a new thread. I thought these would look cool...I know others might have done this, but I don't see too often LED tail lights or especially fiber optic tail lights like the ones I have photoshopped...keeping the look of factory. I like these, but maybe I can get a few opinions...

Those look ******* amazing! Could you possibly do that to see what the exports will look like? I've been thinking of making some sequential LED boards for my exports.

I could photoshop some more, and I do have a photoshop of the other aftermarkets, but the responses I got were not favorable. The Fiber Optic image is an exact imitation of the BMW lighting.
