Not my style but I can appreciate the different approach. Doesn't look bad by any means, just not my thing. I think the thing that bothers me most is how they stick out.

I agree with MONGOOS. They would look much better if they didn't stick out.

I'm not very intelligent, but I still don't like them. Maybe on a silver or white car, but.....

Default Re: Got the altezzas installed...

well, the thing is the lights are jsut on there for now so i can go get a quote from a paint shop for them. the non raised part will be painted black and the rest of the lens will have a slight tint to it... kinda like the trailblazer's lights.

If you get the chrome around painted I thing it might look good. But right now they look out of place, sorry.

It looks like your car has a ghetto booty with the lights sticking out that much. Its different though.. better than the clear ricer crap <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

i think it might look decent if the chrome was gone. not nearly as gawdy as some ricers.

I don't like the fit nor the look. Granted, it does look better than the "white-out" altezzas, it's still a far cry from looking as decent as stock.

This is what they will look like when his are done. BTW mine are for sale as I am redoing a new set with a different style.

Then I masked off parts of them, painted & cleared. I've got some work to do. Im going to go back & wet sand and get em shinier. Whatcha think??

I think you should take the clear lens off that covers the lights....I think then it would look better/good <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
