Rice.....dont do it. Go with the OEM or some smoked ons. Americanmuscle.com has some nice ones for a good price.

These are no different than the 01-04 design except they are eBay brand. If you do get those, I would select sanding it and putting a clearcoat on them or something of that sort, my smoked set on my '99 are starting to peel but you have to be within 10 feet or so to realize that.

I have seen some black cars with those style lights and they look badarse.

yeah, these ones actually dont look ricey at all, they are pretty suttle and simple. id go with them, only concern id have would be to make sure they fit nice, cause ive seen ones that dont fit well, and then look like chit.

I have them and I think they look great. Fitment is great. Quality is what I have a problem with. Mine developed hairline cracks within the first year. Also they were leaky I had to re silicone them. They look great from a distance but when you get up close the hairline cracks look horrible. I have been wetsanding like mother to get rid of them but to no avail.

Getting ready to just shoot them with a light coat of nightshades to mask the cracks.
