AlphaRex Taillights Comparison: Black vs. Alpha Black

[VBFD Taco]

When I was shopping for a taillight upgrade, I was trying to decide between the Black and Alpha Black.

So I called the sales rep and he told me to go with the Black if I was looking for the darker tinted look. Well that was a bust in my opinion. Not a major flop as it turns out because I'm still satisfied with the end result I guess.

I want to thank Taco Ji for letting me use his photo to show the differences between the "Black" and "Alpha Black" on the Bronze Oxide color.

The first photo is the "Black" on my truck and the second is Taco Ji's "Alpha Black". I think his might look darker overall, which I like (could be the lighting maybe) but I also like the non black border of the "Black" against the bronze that makes the long outside bar stand out less. I personally see positive and negative on both.

So there you go. If you're trying to figure out the differences of the two I hope this might help.

Thats funny, alpha black is darker since it has darker trim internally..

To me the black should have been called clear or white instead. Your tail light housing is basically clear vs mine is blacked out in the internals. If you’re not satisfied completely ask for an exchange. Spending that much money I would want to be 100% satisfied. The sales guy / rep needs more training.

Agreed. I don’t like the clear plastics.
