Compared to OEM

Just test fitted one of these on my BRZ to compare with '17+ OEM lights.

- Observations -
  • There is a noticeable difference in material quality and protruding sharp edges, but they got the fitment mostly right.
  • OEM has matte black finish on the inside of the lens, whereas these have a chrome finish.
  • Running light on the OEM is more uniformly lit, whereas these have some sections that appear darker. There is also a noticeable amount of light bleed coming from the top of the running light.
  • When pressing the brake, OEM seems to light up the running light brighter. That doesn't happen on these.

Here are pictures and videos to compare:
