Great stuff - thanks fellas...

Never been much of a flea-bayer. But as I hunt for a frugal deamber - now I'm hooked.

Appreciate the help.

So as for the tails - would you go LED or standard clears?

All the LEDs I've seen look cheap-ish.

Depending on the color of your ride, I'd just go with the clears. If you have a black, red, or white car, I think the solid red (550) lights would look money.

Arctic Silver baby! I know - so uncommon... I'm with you - feel pretty strongly about the clears. 550 lights would look great just as you said - but I think the clears on silver looks the hottest.

Silver on clears baby! Looks pretty good to me too.

Just make sure you get the silver bulbs too. Otherwise it'll bleed amber.
This is where I get my bulbs:

Thanks for the link on the bulbs Jeph - yea, I love the look your car has - now it's my turn to copy you. If only I could have the 996 figure too.....
