I personally think that the blackout look is much better than what those LED lights will give. I have the GTS tail light covers as well and I have never had a problem with them. Maybe you should try tint. It can give you a similar look as the covers in terms of darkness and it will not fall off.

Personally, I thik the VHT nightshades is a better option. IT's a spray paint for your tail lights. You can lay it on in layers and go darker or lighter. Wehn ypou're done, you dhould buff them out to make them really smooth. One of the guys in our club did it to his shelby and it is awesome. Looks much better then tohose palstic covers or the film.

Those are 100% rice IMO, stang is a retro design and "tuner, ricer" lights don't lookgood to me but that's just me; I just don't think retro and rice mix but do whatever makes you smile.
