FS: 07-08 led tail lights moded

07-08 led tails. All leds are working. 100% functional

i cut off the tabs on the bottom so they will line up with the USDM bumper perfect.

They are not JDM OEM

I painted the tops of them with OEM matched silver paint. I couldnt get it to be smooth and gave up. Please do not consider buying these unless you intend to sand/repaint the area that I painted. The plastic under the paint is unrecoverable unless you are some kind of paint genius/magician.

There is also an imperfection on the passenger side in the area that i indicated in blue. As you can see the imperfection is not that easy to see. I just wanted to give an accurate description.

$70 delivered to USA
$60 pick up Broward, Pembroke Pines, FL 33029

please PM me for paypal address.

so what exactly is the imperfection??

btw, have you tried paint stripper?? i heard it's just a liquid you apply on the paint and it starts bubbling and you can just rub it off afterwards?? correct me if i'm wrong..

Imperfection, its frosted/cloudy a bit... I know, you can barely see it.

I didn't try stripping it... I dont want to damage it any farther.

They look really good but they need to be repainted, or sanded and painted over.

Yes they are SSM.

Acetone should take it off and shouldn't damage the lenses.

Soak a rag in it then lay it over the painted area and let it sit for a bit.

And use good ventilation.
