Toms or Buddy club Taillights? (BRZ) - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Which would you go with?

Until this morning, I was thinking about getting Toms for when I get my BRZ in a few months. Now I am gravitating towards the Buddy Club...lol.

Only gripe with Buddy club for me is that...they look as if a "wanna-b aventador" but that is not why I like them... I really like the indicators on them.

If you feel like you must change them out, then Tom's all the way. Not feeling the Buddy Club at all. I personally like the OEM lights though, so we may have different taste.

Toms. i think the buddy club tails are ugly, but that's just me. they suit the shape of the lambo tails, but don't look as good with our tail light shape.

Neither, Valenti.

I've owned just about every tail light available for FR-S/BRZ

There a things I love and hate about them all so far and have yet to find the perfect tail light. Crystal Eye would have to be my favorite so far as the outer lens seems to be the most resilient of them all

Buddy Club is next!

Buy what you like and forget the rest

Personally I like Spyder or Valenti's better.

I absolutely love my Valentis (especially with the matching light bar), and they have ton of color options.

My only complaint with aftermarket lights is almost none of them are using SMD LEDs, which are far superior. Mine are still more than bright enough, though.

toms for sure. the buddy club is too aggressive for me, i definetly agree that they remind me of the aventador tho.
toms look amazing, especially on blue. my car is silver and didn't think i'd like the way the toms would look on it, that's the only thing that held me back

Spyder or Valentis look better and more OEM than TOMS.

I love the Toms on my silver BRZ.
