Hey I did a search and haven't seen anyone talk about the SPYDER tails before. Does anyone have any experience with this company or more specifically their tails? Here are a few images of them. I like the black ones the best- and to smoke them myself. I was thinking about getting them.

 

exactly like the ones on ebay

 

Oh okay, I hadnt seen them before. Do they suck?

 

what's your definition of SUCK?

They my fog up on you which sucks in my book!!!

 

Fogging=sucking to me as well.

 

oem or tyc tails FTW!

 

here's a thought for you to ponder... Instead of shelling out all that green for a part that may fog up on you.... you could pop for a set of OEM rear lamps for an 08. They are clear and similar in design to the pics you posted. I'm having mine on my 08 smoked fairly soon. It will look good, and you wouldn't have to worry the quality or lack there of from cheap a$$ made aftermarket ones.
Just a thought. Not saying all aftermarket ones are crap, but just my 2 cents.

 

tcCAlI :While I totally would agree with you on a regular basis, both my sets are on their way out, and I have an opportunity to get these for free, so I'm wondering if I should bother. I appreciate your deeply constructive feedback though.

My tails now are actually 08's that I cracked out and smoked myself. Only I smoked them too dark and have already gotten pulled over once for them.

 

no-tec..... Check into this.... 3M makes a good quality thick film designed for lenses. I had it on my 06 tC and looked and held up great. Nice part is if you get hassled for them being to dark in your state, the film can come right back off and you dont have to replace the lenses. FYI.. in most states you can tint the tailights as long as they can still be seen 300 feet back at night. I got that straight from a cop's word.

 

i had the smoked ones for 3 weeks and the LEDs of the right went out to the shape of a "shocker"

i was going to keep them if the other tail was to do the same but no luck....LOL

in one line. THET FLIPPIN' SUCKKK!!!!

but hey $129.....you get what you pay for.

back to stockies...love em

 

im sure every state is different mouse. ahhah he lives in florida and im in cali. im just waiting to get pulled over for my limo tint all around, cops are a bust!

 

Yeah in Florida the law is 500 ft. I checked out the laws afterwards. I dont really want to go with overlays. I dont think they will last years+ I appreciate the suggestion though. I guess these tails seem pretty crappy. Maybe I'll just get another pair of the stocks.

 

Funny tcCAlI..... the only state I know of that allows very, very dark tint legally is Arizona. I lived in Phoenix for a few years... and couldnt believe how dark you could go legally. I never went "limo" cause its a B-I-T-C-H to see out of at night. My luck I'd back out of a parking spot and hit a damn nun! :D

 

no worries no-tec.... just a suggestion. they do look really good if you have a shop that knows what they're doing. I live in CO and even in the harsh winters... they still looked like the day I had the 3M put on.

 

eBay ANZO's FTW!

 

OEM or nothing!

 

horrible

 

i have had the black ones on my car for about a year now and i havenn had any problems and i think they look really good

 

x1000 OEM FTW. Ive never seen a set of aftermarekt tail lights that look good.

 

Thanks for staying on topic with your incredibly valuable input!
