much cleaner!

 

[GroverDill]

Such a simple mod makes a huge difference.

I like!

God GT lights are hideous.

looks good man. i'm not a fan of the black 80's stripe though, but thats just me

Sorry, but nothing beats a mint set of cheese graters IMO.

I'm with ya' on this, even though I'm sure we're a very small minority. I love LX tails, but with a GT wing above and a GT bumper below ... meh. It just never looks right, to me. GT lenses go on GT's, LX lenses go on LX's. I can see putting '87+ LX lenses on a pre-87 LX, or vise-versa, but otherwise ... meh. Better than Altezzas, though.

Is it just the lighting in the pics, or does that red paint have some serious oxidation going on?

Looks better. I love the GT lights on a GT, but only if they are mint.

 

[Boostedpimp]

much better

Looks good but, I have always liked the look of black GT tails on non black GT's. Or 85/86 tails.

Ford should have left the '86 or SVO stlye lenses on the 87+ GT's, those look the best IMO. The cheese graters remind me of those 80's fad louvered sunglasses or the louvered tail light lense things people used to put on pickup trucks; way too dated.

I never liked LX tails on GTs until I put them on mine (lol), but they were cheap and I really wanted to ditch those ugly cheese graters. Then I got into a tail light smasher accident this year and the guy paid for my new Cobra tails.

I'm down with the LX tails. Now you need a Cobra rear bumper.

 

[iwashmycar]

looks much better. i like the GTs but the ones you had looked a little beat

 

[Mustang5L5]

LX lenses are nice, but ever since I put Cobra tails on my LX i've been in love with them

 

[FrankenStang]

Cheese Graters ftw.

 

[Aaron]

Cheese Graters ftw.

 

[Mustang5L5]

mama mia! I gots-a to grate-a da cheese

 

[93tealstang]

I gotta agree that GT tails go great with a stock bumper and wing. Change the bumper and wing, then LX's look good. Stock look with LX's in kinda blah and IMO very played out.

Those LX tails are the cleanest looking tail light out there.
