New tails project pics inside
Hey Guys, Just thought I'd share a few pics of the process, I know some of you aren't going to like the chrome look, but that's cool we all have our own personal tastes and that's why there's different options. I love them and they tie in really well with my current and future chrome goodies
Old VS New:

All new:

BTW This is a very easy mod, one 10mm nut to remove squeeze two clips on the fender size on the back of the tails and push they are out.
The fitment of these lights was perfect very high quality. impressive.
Sprayed the amber turn signal bulbs chrome that cam with the lights to keep that clear look!!!!!!!!!

Looks good
I also like the painted wheel spat trim, nice and clean 
As far as the chrome or not......... well I had a chrome fetish going on a little while back, but have swung the other way and started to go back to my monochromatic stage
But have you "chromed" out the front turn signal bulbs? Makes a huge difference

Thanks for the info - often wondered what kind of quality the lights on Ebay were. If the chrome spray doesn't work out both Sylvania and PIAA have chrome tipped bulbs that flash amber by the way.

Actually I've used the chrome spray trick for years, not that I'm being too cheap but the spray works too well.
