Valenti Tail Lights (CR) on Firestorm

I've recently installed the Valenti CR tail lights for my firestorm FRS (or known as the 'Lightning Red' Toyota 86 here) and I think it looks great. I had a issue with wrong wiring (mine is JDM, but the lights are USDM) after the initial install and had to re-wire the connectors to get it right. I noticed that there aren't many photos of the red car with these lights, so I've decided to post some. More coming up once I get some good light

Interested to see more pics.

Very true, not many pics of the firestorm/lightning red with aftermarket tails or reverse lights. I see tons of Whiteout and Raven pics, but those don't help me when it comes to choosing for my car.

Here's another one of the back shots. Not the most flattering lighting or angle - but it does show how the colors work together. These look really special imo.

Looks good on red and works surprisingly well with the stock lower lights!

The lights do fit the red paint rather well due to the red chrome surround imo. The LED lights are bright and lovely BUT do note that some of the LEDs on mine (left orange indicator) have died recently - I have contacted my vendor to request for a replacement. It's not a big issue just an annoyance. Apparently, Valenti admitted that there were a few batches of these left lamps that had wiring defects. Let's see how that goes.

Meanwhile, here's 2 more shots of these lamps up-close on the Firestorm/Red.

Dude, that car is my dream FR-S! Love the exhaust, love the lip, LOVE the tails!

The only thing that scares me right now are the few people who have had to return them due to some of the LEDs needing to be replaced. Other than that, these are my favorite tail light design so far.
