I am. They are too freaking sparkely.

They are also brush scratched to death, as my truck sees alot of off road time and dam, they are still sparkling.

You should get a set of these to protect your sparklies. :spit:

Don't laugh, but I "tried" to make them less sparkely with the "Calrocx Mod" but is was still too sparkely, so I took them off and it's better......

See they are off and it's still too bling!

what i miss from the 2nd gen 4runner is the amber in the taillights.

you laugh, but my tail light guard saved me from some hefty body damage, though it did come back and pinch my door a bit.

I wanna get some! But then again, I am not as off-road oriented as some of you other guys.

Plus, when they get scratched up, it's just another weekend to spend workin on your beloved 'yota, right?

My "calrocx" guards actually broke one of the tail lights. I two part epoxied it and it's fine and sparkeling again.

With the Extreme Calrocx Mod:

While they do look "kinda" cool, they trashed a light.

FYI: WAAG Tail Light Guard, crack/destroy tail lights if used as actual guards.

yeah the whole reason i sold my original ones to andy was bc i had a crack in one of them from my tail guards that i didnt see till i removed them.

this was back when i was blingin', so i needed everything to be perfect, so i sold mine to andy and bought another member with an 02's lights :hillbill:

once i saw you had 01/02 taillights, i knew the race for title of bling king was on, so i had to respond quickly and decisively.

Well I guess they are not as bad as those Altezza ones or do you remember those "Clear" lights they used ot have like 6-7 years ago. I should have just kept my normal 99 lights. I but I do really like my 2002 black sport grill. That thing is sick.

I have a first year Taco and both my tail lights are original. I have a small chunk missing out of one and it has another small crack but both are hardly visible to anyone that cares. I've been so close to grabbing a newer set from someone that has offered them but I just don't care one way or the other really. No one would notice and it won't make my truck go any faster. I figure I'll just milk the stock ones for all their worth =]

Hey sschaefer3,

Where did you pick up the tail lights at? I gots the original still, and I have been considering on getting the "more sparkly" ones as you say. And how much you get the for if you dont mind me asking?
