Granted the car isnt as clean but you get the idea.

#2 with the chrome strip aka stock.

Reflector painted, definitely!

Sorry. I don't like any of them. I never really liked the whole painted reflector idea. Looks odd. The taillights just end and connect to nothing.

I like lightly tinted tails but thats about it.

Painted reflector with a chrome strip. Thats what I am personally running.

I vote for the painted reflector.

BTW, what's all that snot blowin' out your exhaust? Is that normal? Was it cold or something?

I kinda like the first one but I usually don't.

if the painted chrome strip still had the Ford badge I'd choose that one.

Ditto...black painted reflector with the Ford symbol blacked out also, replaced by the SVT symbol...

Thanks guys.....Man after seeing it with the painted reflector for about 4 years now its hard to look at it with the chrome painted..

Just wanted to get some more opinions

Btw it was about 30degrees here when i took that pic.

I painted the chrome strip and the reflector. I'm almost startin the like just the reflector painted and the chrome strip left alone.

I'd leave it alone, not a fan of the painted reflector, however if you do paint it,leave the chrome alone!

I think im gonna flop it back to painted reflector this weekend.

Add one more vote for the painted reflector

Always told you the painted reflector is the one to go with. That is what makes your car yours.

Totally stock is what I like, but maybe painting the chrome strip to match the front might be good.

I like this look the best...

I think if you don't like the reflector than you shouldn't have one. Don't paint over it. Doesn't flow right.

Just get a Pre-98 trunk instead.
