good choice on the toms
i like how everything has its own set of lights... parking/braking/signal

I just don't feel insecure about things like that - I just think they're great, and a well-designed piece of equipment, but I don't think they're the worse or tackier of two things simply because something similar came before it. To each their own!
As long as you're happy with it, that's the right mindset.

I totally agree -

They match the car very well - I totally like the look of them and the personality it gives to the cars ass.
I would not have changed them having seen all the other tails except for -

The crystal eyes, to give it a DIFFERENT personality than all the stock tails.
I think they match better with the 5 axis kit.

The large amount of aftermarket parts (and use of) in so short of time after the cars release shows the industry realized our cars are a phenomenon.

A real fun car !

TOM's are hands down the best looking tails on the market in my opinion. They are well built and thought out.

Toms and Crystal eyes are definitely at the top ranking of tails from the point of style and asthetics.

Tom's for the polite serene well balanced look,

And Crystal Eyes for the P!SSED OFF SAMURAI look !

The more I look at my OEMs + red VHT, the more I like them. I'd have to be done with all of my other mods before I consider replacing them with Toms or Valentis I think

I'm not into red lenses or I'd do the exact same. It looks good and it's affordable. Had I not melted my drivers side, I would've just opened my stockers and painted them black or body matched white.
