I loved ‘em since subiespeed first showed them. Unfortunately there’s too many other things I’d spend $600 on before changing my taillights. Looks great though. I’ve always liked your WRX🤙
@@xsliick oh that's awesome. we kinda twinning real hard. The gurney flap is from password jdm. I actually made a video awhile back on it. The clear coat is pretty faded after the years. I wax it to protect it but it is what it is.
I heard that’s the con with that gurney flap... They fade pretty quick. I seen a red STI for sale at my local dealer and he had the GF and it was faded as well. 😂 It looks bad ass but I think I’ll save my money.
How has the original pair been holding up? The main thing holding me back from getting these despite how nice they look is the build quality with the dead led and condensation.
Imo when it comes to wanting a clean look they both are, they're really ricey. However, there are pros and cons to each for design. V1 Brake claw fits the shape! But the raw LEDs are ugly. V2 Brake claw DOESNT fit the shape. BUT the colors and finish are better. Regardless due to the unfortunate quality reputation they have, I would never buy them.
So which one holds the most water inside?
That thumbnail is epic. Just how every substitute teacher pronounced a Cambodian kids last name. Love it.
Personally more of a fan of the V2s over the V1, seems much more minimalist and cleaner
Dig the V2, just wish it carried the body line all the way.
Agree
Love my v2 tails! Matches perfectly with my v2 headlights!
Dustin Prom I just got the v2 headlights debating on v1 vs v2 taillights do you think v2 matches better
I was going to get the V1s for my 2017 STI but now you got me thinking 🤔 lol nice video keep up the good work!
glad i can help!
John Nguyen love the content! You really do help with your videos.
Get the V1's
I prefer the dark tinted v1s

I wish subispeed would have the taillights similar to the you posted on your IG (looks like lambo tail lights), when you were in JAPAN
yeah it's out but hopefully it comes here soon
Got me v1’s and like them a lot I kinda like the raw led
its definitely more aggressive
do u still have these and could i buy them if u dont want them anymore?
V1 is plug and play now too
3:57 I was hurting for you. I thought you got a bad batch at first. 😂
Lol, I swear these were harder to install then the other ones I did lol
I have your old ones but the updated version where it’s plug and play. Also, what gurney flap is that on the wing?

@@xsliick Yeah if you can get clear coated and protected. You might be in luck. My car is garaged and i tired to maintain it but yeah lol
Both good looking headlights but I prefer the v1 :)
thanks!
Any issues you’ve had with these ?
what wheel and tire size is that?
How has the original pair been holding up? The main thing holding me back from getting these despite how nice they look is the build quality with the dead led and condensation.
i am back on my oem pairs, so i can't say.
John Nguyen why’d you switch back? Any problems with the v2 also if you still have them are you selling them?
Hi,
Why did you switch back to original?
What are your thoughts on how bright the back up lights are vs. Stock?
The v2 are insanely bright. Like hid hi beam bright
i like the shape of the v1. i dont like the v2 shape but it has better LED.
I agree, if we can get the v2 shape with better diffusers. It would be the best
looks great.
how does it function when braking with the hazards turned on?
similar to the like crown Victoria or other american cars.
Amazing tail lights bro😊👍🏼
thank you!

@@mr.zr9159 awesome r34!!!
@@JohnNguyenVincent Thank you!!
V2 > V1 but both still better than the wack ass variants recently
lol the sentra tail lights?
You forget the WRX uses 2005 Corolla tail lights as an inspiration. Look at how clumsy and bulky they look.
Hey John, how much would you let those V1's go for?
Not for sale. Sorry
Nice rexxy
V1 looks better on your car
