Clear Third(3rd) Brake Light and Hood Scoop

[rollingthunder]

I got my clear Third(3rd) brake light and universal hood scoop in today. I ordered them on Christmas eve and I just got it today lol.

I installed the brake light, it was real easy to do, the factory one popped right out after I removed the screws and I used end caps to splice the wires, then I taped over the wiring.

Clear Rear

Brake lights Lit

I need some opinions on my hood scoop, I bought it because my 4Runner did not come w/the hood scoop, I will have it painted body color, and try to have it molded onto the hood.
Position 1

Position 2

Position 3 (I really like this one)

the light looks ok, I don't like the hood scoop at all though, stock ones are nice

While the light helps with the look, the scoop is too small. Painting to match will make it look smaller still.

You asked.

light looks really good. as for the scoop not a big fan. but pic 1 is best out of all 3. maybe if it were molded it would look better.

The third brake light looks good. I'm not to fond of the hood scoop.

getting no love on that scoop! I think it'll look great once its painted and molded on. I dont think its all that much smaller than the regular one... maybe its just me. I think the fact that it is not the same color as the body, and not molded in, is throwing people off.

oh yeah, and my vote is position 1.

3 is different and i kinda like it.

where are all my photoshop kings at?, so I can see what it will look like painted..... :artist:

Looks good, I like pos1 for the scoop, painted silver of course!

 

[Sloan]

Looks good, I like pos1 for the scoop, painted silver of course!

x2, but i do agree i think it looks kinda small. still will look good painted and mounted though.

The clear 3rd brake light looks good. It really cleans up the rear of your 4runner.

The hood scoop does seem a little small, but I think it has the potential to look good it is molded and painted well. How much are they charging you to do that?

I think I like position one the best, but positon three is the most unique.

[move120]

~let me get on photoshop and see what i can do!

 

[move120]

not liking those really dim clear tails you useing led bulbs ?

thanks for all the comments, this is why I'm hear to share learn get props and constructive criticism, yes I'm using L.E.D. Bulbs

I like the look of an all clear rear

move120 thanks for the photoshop is gives me more to think about

 

[Elton H]

not saying it looks bad just not bright enough for my taste maybe if you stuck some of these bad boys in there ?

 

[RonMAIDEN]

Yes,the bigger LED bulbs are much better and brighter.

The scoop just simply won't look right and will always look like a stuck-on piece;I'd save for the actual OEM faux scooped hood.

 

[move120]

you could look around for a bigger stick on hood scoop but idk it kinda throws me off hah

 

[rollingthunder]

these are the L.E.D.s that I have, I had to modify the opening to get these bad boys to fit lol, and yeah the scoop needs to be a little wider I'll look for another one, or may not do it all together thanks for the input guys

 

[Elton H]

ahh those led's these new smd ones are much better

the lights look cool on the silver, pos. 1 for the scoop. it does look a little small, but molded & painted should make it . remember to post the new pics afterwards.
