I think it looks fine but there is no way in hell I would drive it like that. How are people going to have any idea that you are backing up, as opposed to you just being on the brakes? A Mustang owner might notice but I can't imagine any regular person out there having a clue.

Just put a "beep beeper" on it like a dump truck. Then people will know you're backing up.

Just have to be careful lol. I watch for people/cars when i'm backing up, not the other way around. I have LEDs in my reverse lights and they are bright as fuck. Although this paint has dramatically decreased light output i think most people will still be able to tell when im in reverse.

It is a mod. It looks different. It looks well done. Does it blend with the rest of your ride? Most will comment according to what they have already done with theirs. So, Do you like it? "There you go".

I like it, especially after seeing the pics in post 32. However, I love those raxiom taillights on the '10 and up models.

It definitely looks different and I don't hate it but I never hated the tails that much on the 5.0s.

It'd be cool if someone made those switch back lights for the reverse lights. Maybe if only one of the reverse lights on each side were showing? Just throwing ideas out there. I still got no love for the point at the bottom of the lights.

up close the taillight paint looks kind of pink lol. if it were a bit darker, it would look better. it could use *something* to break up all of the red to give it the traditional mustang shape.
