I went from the plain white tails to painted black, and they look a lot better imo.

Well, it seems as though the people on here feel the same way i do. Alot of people around here like them, but i just dont see it, maybe if they were black, not faux carbon fiber. Lets go take 2 them,
Which head lights?

Go with whatever you like personally. I think the tails of a different color look like crap, but others seem to like it. It's your car. If it were mine, I would definately keep the stockers.

I too like the stock tails, but I actually prefer the stock cobra headlights to all others. There are a few cars that have the blacked out headlight look that I think look good with them, but there are not many.

Cobra's are "clear" in the center, you can clearly see the bulb. GT's are not like this, you can not see the bulb through the lens.
