Default aftermarket rear tail lights for EL/EF

Does any manufacturer make a taillight for the EL/EF falcon that can give the car a bit of street creed. Maybe a darker one with round internal lights.

Thats the whole EF range, and the EL Fairmont/Ghia's/Lanes.

drop the car over some nice 18 or 19's, get some engine mods, and you'll have stacks more street cred than a set of crap tail lights will give you

Don't like the sedan ones but IMO the ute ones aren't too bad.

I dont mind the AU ones on a car thats closer to being a show car then a daily driver.

Only sorta "aftermarket" style EF/EL tailights ive seen are on Chubbz's EF he is selling.

i will keep with what ive got, the stock ones. Aftermarket ones would probably look too cheap for what they are and what youd pay for them

Good on him for giving it a go.

I think the best option would be playing around with custom LED tail lights. They wouldn't look very different except when on, but at least it's a functional improvement.
