LED Tail Lights

Personally I think the chrome LED tail lights look awesome on an artic silver Boxster. Here's a pic I stole from somewhere (sorry I can't give a proper reference).

I would love to get these for my car (it's silver), but I've had trouble finding a reasonable price on them. They used to be on eBay for about $200. But the chrome ones aren't on there anymore. Now the best price I can find is $300. Not sure who they're made by, but FK Automotive distributes them in Germany and Mimousa distributes them in the US. If anyone knows where to get these at a better price in the US, please drop me a line.

+1 on this notion. Those all look so nasty...all those 'altezza' style lights.. So ricer/fast&furious style... might as well get some neon undercarriage lights and led nozzles. haha

See, even the supplier wont put them on his car. May I ask what else you supply, cause maybe we could buy stuff direct from you.

Ask this guy if he wants to trade since hes selling his car anyway, maybe make his car sell faster with normal lights plus some pocket change, lol.

Yeah, hook us up man! I can't get the chrome LED lights on eBay. Option Racing doesn't sell them now, although they used to. Can you get them or explain why they're not available?

I am with Fray and Gary in BR. About a month ago I had an unfortunate encounter with a dumpster smashing one of my rear tail lights. So rather than pay the close to $400.00 the dealer wanted I ordered the smoked LED's. They match the side markers and look very good in my opinion. Brighter too. As far as LED style lights being ricer......to each thier own.

Der_geist,

The people on this thread arnt saying that all LED lights look ricer, I like LED lights, but the pictures earlier in this thread look very RICER, and ugly. The LEDs on the carrera GT look great, the OEM style LEDs with smoke in this thread look good too.
