I have always loved the look of the stock zenki tail lights; just don't like the chrome. No other aftermarket tail light has ever appealed to me.

I'm seriously hoping that they make a red version as well!

Me too, exactly.

I looked at the DIY threads over and over and was thinking I'd buy some used OEM lights and do it...but then I figured I'd most likely destroy a few before getting it right and would have spent around the same amount, lol.

Are you on stock suspension and what side skirts are those? The wheels look great

Thanks! I'm lowered on Hotchkis springs and the side skirts are HT Autos from FT86Speedfactory.

Technically didn't do anything yet.

Also as a former FedEx truck loader/packer, I'm not surprised.

Actually I scored it last weekend. The box arrived today. It's like Christmas in April.

Wow, what a deal. I paid close to $900 for mine on Amazon and it was worth every penny. Quiet when you want, loud when you want, and theres never any drone.

They're the same price everywhere I could find them, I went with ft86speedfactory for the free shipping...plus, if you add the LED turn signal bulbs on the same page as the lights they're $15 instead of $30

Drambeenie · 05-11-2017, 11:18 AM

Disassembled the 2017 rear wing!

Thanks! How does their quality compare to stock? Are they as bright?

As far as I can tell they're identical...I was comparing them side by side when they were all out and almost expected the OEM lights to say Depo on the back.

Extra tip from the Gasket Ninja guy's gasket install video...tape over the edges where the light meets the trunk...my old lights had a surprising amount of dirt in them. I used electrical tape for the time being:
