    Thank you Nick!

    So is there anything outstanding from your perspective? Or are you satisfied with everything?

    I also prefer the smoke lens to the above pic shared by Byron where you can see the LED dots.

    To go clear, the center base layer with the LEDs would have to use something other than black, would need to look more like below.

    Even still, think I prefer the dark centers, higher coolness factor.

    All looks great and fittament is perfect. Much better quality than stock. I would like the halo to blink with the indicator that would be awesome! Anyway You can do that Byron?

    Do you mean the blinker should blink the double ring as opposed to the whole light?

    How solid do they seem in terms of the mount? If you don't mind my asking. It's a different mounting design so just curious.

    Just the outside light ring should blink. The mounting is solid. Factory only has 3 bolts per light I added additional bolt on each light. It's solid lines up perfect and no rubbing on metal body.

    Thank you Nick. based on the center brake light bar, they seem really bright when braking and brighter than the center bar.

    If we are on the topic of upgrades with the intent of visibility & safety - as opposed to aesthetics - this may be a bit out there to do but will definitely address the issue @ByronKong :

    https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ny_Wp2RTkGU

    Mazda CX (pulsating blinkers). The closest I could find that is similar to the light design and size. I've seen them in person probably a dozen times, rain or shine they really stand out in a good way. Can be seen a mile away! :rolleyes:

    Having to make the halo ring blink as well is definitely an easier alternative but since it is part of the running light, it may reduce its life cycle by working as both since they are aftermarket LEDs after all.

    Another thing to point out is I've never seen red and amber blink simultaneously either. It may look a bit odd.

    Yes this shot is a lot better. The other one when the sunlight hits directly on it was not all that visible

    They look great! Smoked center for me still. I’m still in as soon as something that works for everyone is worked out!

    ***MAJOR UPDATE***

    1.) Blinkers are getting looked at and worked on for those who are concerned with their brightness and visibility. Halo can be turned into blinkers but those who want that would have to take it up with @ByronKong directly and expect to pay more as it's a "special request".

    2.) Engineers have updated the wiring harness for USA cars to have reverse lights on the inside and blinkers on the outside.

    3.) This Group Buy pricing has gotten sweeter with the following:

    5-9 sets are $1,600 each shipped to your door
    10+ sets drop it down to $1500 each shipped to your door

    *DISCLOSURE*: I am going to end this GB as soon as we hit 10 sets. I don't feel right to keep our early adopters to keep waiting past 10. Byron will get the list of participants. Only those on that list will be honored this pricing + a cool surprise when he sends you the invoice.

    Happy early Black Friday F-Chatters ;)

    1.) Tommy @TommyTheV
    2.) John @colorfull
    3.) Dominic @66ss427
    4.) Pat @Patman
    5.) Skim @Flea7
    6.) Skim's Friend
    7.) No name @boba fett <--- Will need confirmation

    @ByronKong, thank you for sorting things out with the group.
    If you ever decide to develop another look, please consider these that were just posted. I would be a buyer if you ever made a set that has the design in the plastic.

    hello,When I was developing and designing this taillight, I had the 360 taillight for reference. I also bought a set of these taillights that you posted. However, the middle position of the lamp 430 is not as big as that of 360, so the cost will be greatly increased if the lamp is made like 360, because the mold will become complicated.

    Thank you for the update Byron

    So for those of us who are on the list to acquire these lights, are you able to provide a video that shows the functionality of the lights that will be coming to us?

    I know that you have worked with Nick to address a number of issues, and thank you so much for that, hopefully everything is sorted out.

    Can we see a video demo of what you will be sending us, so that we can see all the functionality prior to ordering?

    Hey Nick, I think that is for a carbon fiber piece that goes around the lights on the rear of the car

    F430 doesn't have that

    And it's sold by Vivid Racing, made by '1016 Industries'
