bluebat does have overlays for tC tails. They have two grades of tint, light and dark. I was gonna do this when I found the right place to buy the anzo. Some told me that the leds arent that durable.

I recently talked to tctctc, he explained how the LEDs come on and off. He had the tails for 5 or more months. I think its one of the nicer tails. I need to get new tails....I cant stand the o8s.

he doesnt make black out for just the top, just to whole thing, or the bottom clear part. He could probably make them custom if he had access to the tail lights

Yes Anzo tails are inconsistent from different sellers. Tina also had issues with her tails. Any who, I am trying to find the best place to get the anzo tails and I might make a thread soon.

Actually the lights look fine the way they are. I think if you get a set, you should just keep it the way it is. Ebay is probably the cheapest way to go but there are a bag full of sellers who sell these lights. The main question is which seller to buy these lights from.

yea you're right.
i don't see a lot of people selling these lights right now though =/
but buying some new ones off ebay would be prolly be the best bet anyway.
but yea they look good the way they are shipped to you.
but i kinda wanna switch it up seeing, how they would just look like stock but different here in oside..

Domo speaks the truth.
I had mine for 10 months and 3 of the LED's only come on if you can hit it in a certain way, but once it gets a lite tap they turn back off. I now have another waste of money sitting in my room.

But anyways, bat does sell the bottom overlays. Just email him.

and is it really easy to replace them for my 08 ones?
