Question of the Day

I know everybody hates altezza tail lights. But what I don't know is why. So what's so bad about them? Personally, I think they look pretty good.

Hmmm yeah.....i think its the ricer connotation associated with them

Personally, i think they look kind of cheap, and thats my reason. The tail lights that are different colors (brake lights still light up red though, because red is a color of warning that humans identify with) look ok if they match the color of the car...

anyway, yeah

hahhah really..............i mean come on, there ARE things other than performance....*runs away from the angry mob of AFers chanting "heretic!" and preparing for a stake burning*

Yup.......body kits reduce wind resistance, and neon undercarriage lights give ya better results on the skidpad......

some people DO like to look good as well as go fast, i mean, come on, most chicks arent gonna be like "oooooooh look at the suspension mods, ooooh nice turbo, blah blah blah blaaaaaaaaah" (but if she does, congratulations!!!)

when i saw the first releases of the altezza lights on ebay i was like "cool i'm gonna get one of those"

a week later everyone and their cousin had them and it's so annoying now.

it even cheapens the look of the IS300... except when it's on the silver it really looks cool.

now you can see it on trucks and cars and it just looks like too much plastic.

i guess it really depends on your ride, if you have a clean look then it might look cool... but overall it adds some rice to your ride.
