Default LED Taillights

Not sure if this is a repost, but what do you all think of these?

I have heard that there is a bulge on the tail light and that it is not smooth looking like stock.

I have a set. They do bulge and personally I dont like it. But I leave them on b/c my JP wing covers it and other than that I like them. Ill try and post a pic for you later, but I think I've posted them on here in a old depo LED thread.

I am actually not 100% sure either as I've never seen them in person but a member here who got them said there was a bulge. That and the cheeziness of the z on the tail light prevened me from buying these.

I tried looking for the thread, and couldn't find it. I would really like to see what they look like on a car.

So far the only decent tail lights are the 06, which are "ok", it's a shame no one can make a set that look really good that everyone actually likes.

Thank you. I would really like to see these ones, with black instead of chrome, too.

those are god awful ugly as sin! the only nice led's are the oem or the jdm. most of us arent willing to spend 600 for those lights. ill stick with my plain ol red taillights... its much better than an altezza light or a light with a dam Z written in led lights. ricetastic!

$400 shipped from Performance Nissan is IMO a great deal. I swapped my 05 OEM taillights for 2 reasons. The LEDs look better and, the most important, they're a thousand times brighter (20 LEDs in each housing) then the two bulb 03-05 OEM lights.

Here's a pic with just the parking lights on.
