Thanks!
Haha someone did the cutting for me. I can crack some headlights open no problem, but I can't cut into body panels. Everything is wired into the tag lights.
Some more pictures.
How it looks from the side. It's not flush, but i prefer how this looks. You can't make this flush without some bodywork
4 - 5 car lengths away

Thanks Alan
You really don't notice it if you're not THAT close to it. There maybe plans of molding it into the bumper later, but it's not my top priority. I looks good, not flush IMO.
Here's a picture of it at night

I'm usually pretty critical about these kind of things, but I like this. Very OEM looking. Probably because of the diffuser. It would look better flush, but all things considered the rear of your car looks really good.
The only downside is how much it will stand out from other traffic when seen from far away, like in a Patrol Car. But if you only use the accelerator in those situations, then there's no problem.

Thanks!
Thanks a lot! This mod is really hate it or love it. Many people say they love the spot while others say it's tacky and etc. I got my radar detector for the sticky situations
No JDM tails here sir, maybe one day. Thanks for the opinion!

Is the new light incandescent, or LED like the tails? It seems a different shade of red.
Have you considered some simple drop-in bulbs to change the look of the rear lights just a little? I'm using amber LED's on the license plate, and bright-white LED's in the back-up. Here's a recent pic:

I have the white LED in both my license plate and reverse. Where'd you get your ambers from?
