Those expensive lights that Pykie and TheCaptain have are the closest to GT-R lights. Really bright LED's. Too bad they stick out a mile and aren't very nice looking other than when lit up.

It looks great at night. What about when the lights aren't on during the day? I think this is the type of aftermarket tail lights companies need to be making instead of the shitty looking ones they are putting out now. GREAT JOB!!
