These are awesome taillights. If I had the money I'd try them out.

Kewl...ricey, but still sorta kewl
I still don't understand how an alternate style of taillights for our cars is ricey. Would you call the export taillights ricey too?

They look ricy but I saw some on a car a couple weeks ago and they actually didn't look that bad. Especially if the care is on the darker side.

well I must say they do look better than the original Altezzas, but I don't like em. Maybe if you painted the chrome inside black?

I have to admit, the carbon fiber ones in StalkerLS1's post look pretty good whereas the chrome ones are a little ricey. Can anyone do a photoshop of the carbon fiber ones?

Why did they put the Reverse lights way out on the sides like that?? That's my only complaint. Could we turn that into a Turn signal by using an Amber Bulb and doing a little wire splicin? Do we have to have Reverse lights though? Maybe make some out of something or off another car where they fit just inside on either side of the tag opening like the older vettes?

The carbon fiber looks great - I'd invest in them since they would work great with my black camaro (I also broke my left taillight by to much bass hitting it).

With my current mods of 5.0 short stick, tranny fluid drain, spark plugs, passenger window motor change...RAMmatting my car 62 sq ft, and painting my calipers I'm to booked.

I might consider it, but how much time does it take to change them?

Yea right now I have the "bubbley" lookin ones. Would the black look ok on a black car with chrome accents? does the chrome in the tail lights make for too much chromey stuff...well maybe i can figure something out..thanks Justin
