After reading about splicing, not being flush,condensation, flickering, and unreturnable. I may just stay with what I got. Unless I'm wrong, let me know. Also do they make tint spray to spray on them to make bkacklines?

1. not being flush: cut a little bit of rubber or foam tape in the shape of the light housing, and attach the sticky side to the light. Then, when you reapply it; it will fit flush, just like the OEM version. Flickering is much more common on the 06 and 07 vehicles, but 08 on it's much better. i think you'll be fine.

Ours is plug and play, fits flush, and has 4 LEDs compared to others 3 but as you said it is too dark to match the blacklines. All LED side markers will flicker upon start up as that is how the car's computer checks for bulbs that are out. I would say go with Lamin-x to tint your current side markers.
