Default GT3RS Tail Lights?

I just changed out my tail lights. Can't decide if I prefer the look to stock. Opinions welcome.

Congratulations on the RS! The tail lights look great. Did you install them after delivery? Also, are those RS98s?

What do the STOCK lights look like to compare with the red lights.

That is a Porsche Motorsports option. I saw 'em at the Hockenheim ring on display during a Porsche Club Germany event last May. I like them both. On ours (black/slate), stock looks better.

Looks good. I have the Green color, so I'll stick with stock.

Totally. My car came with them from the factory. I had a 997 C2S with stock lamps and I much prefer the all-red.

Thanks for the feedback.
Jon70 - I installed them after delivery. Yes, these wheels are the RS98's.
jsdkms - Purchased them from dealer parts dept. $297.00 each.

All red looks nice on black darker cars imo. I like stock lights on white/lighter cars

I also like the break up with the clear in lighter cars.

However, your car still awesome! Love the wheels.

It smokes on my SY and it will too on your green. Much bolder. It just will go with any color. When you see it in person, the previous one looks... Toyota

Darkened rear lights would look cool on your car.
