i swear everyone out there is a HATER when it comes to aftermarket lights. do what YOU want to do man, all i ever hear if anyone ever mentioned anythign about aftermarket tails... unless they are the $400/pair 06 led or jdm ones then people get all pissy about anything less. this is entirely up to you!
I will be honest that I currently have aftermarket led taillights, they are NOT the $400/pair oem ones, and I have had them for months. I actually get compliments about them a lot (also from Z owners who have seen them) and they look pretty nice. They have a G35 style LED circle to it which sets it apart from those nasty stock lights.
In my honest oppinion I think the 06 LEDs are ugly, there is no logical SHAPE to the way they place the leds in the lense, its like a broken up triangle... I personally did not like the 06 look nor did my wife.
be different and do what you want, don't get 06 leds just because others think you should, they are ugly anyways.
cheapest thing to do is put on blackout tinting for $20 bucks and call it a day!

LOL.....worse than a ricer..
If you think the LED lights are ugly then don't drive a Z. Instead, go drive a civic.

Oh god, another penny-pincher trying to justify why they paid less than $200 for a pair of aftermarket low quality LEDs.
How about you post a pic of your "G35 style" LEDs and I'll post of pic of my OEM LEDs.
Actually I post mine anyways w/ only the parking lights on.
