Default Flareside Tailights

I have a '06 flareside. I've recently blacked out all the chrome, and the only thing left is the taillights, which seems so be my problem. Short of retrofitting, I cant seem to find any aftermarket taillights that are black or smoked, since the lights are different for flareside beds. I know I could use spray tint, but I like the aftermarket LED look. Does anybody know where I could get flareside aftermarket tail lights with black housings that aren't Euro style. Thanks

This is the only set I've come across for the flareside, I haven't bought a pair or used the website so I'm unaware of the quality.

I have those smoked LED tails for my flareside. I tried another set, but the difference between running and braking intensity was crap. On these, it's great.

They're good quality, in my case, I had to clearance just a little bit on an upper surface to get them to lay perfectly - 30 seconds with a dremel.

I say buy with confidence. If you don't like the styling, you're SOL for LED's -- sorry.

Just tint your stock lights and toss some LED bulbs in for now if you don't like the ones you linked. I think your only other option is for retrofits.

Check mine out. I believe mine were Spyder tail lights and they're really affordable.
