Hey All,

Anyone have any info at all on these tails? I really dont like the stock tail lights at all but I like the chrome ricey tails even worse. These look decent in the pics but have no way to know what they will look like installed. My other thought would be to paint the red trim around the stock lights black but not sure if it would hold up well.

Here is the link:

Any info/opinions/knowledge of this product welcome & appreciated. Have read alot of info that some of these China made tails leak/fog etc. Totally underwhelmed with the aftermarket products on the market....

I just realized the link I included was for 96-98 but the 2000 tails looked the same and were from the same seller. I have a 1999.5.

Here's what the black trim around the tail lights would look like. I did it last year. I used three or four coats of black all weather spray paint (for like plastic patio furniture) and two or three coats of clear (same thing). The clear has worn off so now it looks matte but actually doesn't look bad.

Slickroger has those exact lights, i think he had them on his previous pathfinder which was green, he has them on his black one now. The difference between mine and his are his lens' are clear with a black housing, mine are tinted with a chrome housing inside. it looks great since the chrome is VERY subtle

WoW-quick responses, thanks guys. They all look great! Kyoo those lights look 100xbetter, I may give the painting a try.

Qxxx4-Yours look great too, did you tint them or did you buy them that way. I am not big on chrome but they look great/subtle like you said. My concern is getting pulled over for the tint?

Here is the actual link to the ones I was thinking about getting but I think I like Qxxx4's better.

the ones your looking at are exactly like slickrogers, mine are the "smoked" ones on ebay with chrome inside. There was no tint added the way I got them is the way they are. I might add tint later, since the tinted lens that I have now does not affect light output at all
