Stanglife that looks awesome. I want tot do this mod soo bad! I'd definitely add the matte surround from american muscle though since I don't have any gloss black on my car.

I read through most of this and didn't see the answer so forgive me if it was already answered but were the connectors the same or was additional wiring needed to do the install

To the peeps that have done this mod, has anyone tried to shim a piece of styrofoam or the like under the bumper cover itself to try to lift it up and eliminate some of that gap?

** NOTE: I have since cut back the CF a bit so it flows better with the bottom of the taillight**





That looks great. What is CF wrap? It's what you used on the decklid panel, right? I'd love to know where to get that.

need help

What type of harness did you have to use to connect your new taillights I recently just purchased a set of two 2013 tail lights without the harness and it has 8 pins coming from the light and I have a 2010 which is 10 pin so my question is what type of harness will I need to purchase in order to make this fit ?

I have an extra set of taillight pigtails if you want them. You cant get just the pigtails from Ford- I tried. Shoot me a PM and we can settle on a price.
