Re: Tail Light Opinions

Really? I like the stock lights haha, but anyway.. I've been thinking about getting a pair of these: http://us.st11.yimg.com/store1.yimg...._1884_14618511

You can get them from Mach V. The only thing that's keeping me back.. is that I actually like how the stock tail lights look. This is your car though, so this is what I would replace my stock lights with

Re: Tail Light Opinions

I like the stock lights also. If its not illegal in your area I like the way the way black outs look. If your into the more altezza/euro look, there are some altezza's with carbon fiber backs(so it looks pretty much black except for the red dots) that I think look pretty good. Regardless of what you do I would paint the center piece to match your car.

Re: Tail Light Opinions

Yeah, couple years ago we used to have two of our cars with front and back black outs. Looked hot, then the 5-0 started harrassing us about them. Man, I hate the police. Its like......the 2 requirements to be a state trooper in NC are: You have to be an asshole, and you have to have a tight fade. WTF.

Yeah, but anyways black outs are cool, but on your car I say Stock or those JDM looking ones with the amber corner. Me personally....euros disgust me

Re: Tail Light Opinions

I think the stock tail lights beat anything out there.

Re: Tail Light Opinions

do a light smoke job on them, you can get them looking ruby red with about 4 coats of VHT Niteshades.

Altezzas are mega lame.

Re: Tail Light Opinions

I agree with the niteshades. If i wouldnt have gotten into an accident in my truck i would still be sporting the niteshaded tails. Since i broke one in the accident im upgraded to LEDs. Still might give those a little niteshade though.

Re: Tail Light Opinions

IMO, stock lights with painted center peice is your best bet, but then again your car is red, lol.

I once saw a black 2nd gen with all clear taillights, now THAT was hot.
