cool emblem!

but i think it'll look better (less scrunched) if you move it a little to the left

I got them second hand from bBism in TN. Prolly do a search on here. There is a topic on several different styles of JDM tails somewhere on the site. Good luck

I got these coming on the way through eBay

xBHawk:
are mine the same as yours? Your version seems to have round lamps.. or is that the camera angle?

Vertex had not been very good on communications but I'm confident the lamps are gonna get here at long last, next week. The total cost? It was a"buy it now' auction.. with S&H,, the total is $84 for this particular sale. Very reasonble- the high S&H is how they sell these things so cheap at the bottom line.

If the red clashes with the Yellow car I'll be.. well, still happier than I am with these stock tails.

I like Max's work, too. Sharp.

Stock tails with VHT Nite Shades tint. mine are decently dark but still very visible and I LOVE them.






at night VVVVV






sorry for all the pics but that's just about ALL that i've got and it shows the differences between low light and high light regarding how dark they look.

I had mine like that for a few weeks then figured they looked too much like regular ordinary stock lights off of a minivan (Astrovan or caravan) take your pick.

Thanks! Now im stuck deciding between the stoplight tails in red with the red/yellow/white, or the chrome in the red/red/red lights. I love the chrome idea w/the TCM, but i like the red/yellow/white look. Grr...cant have your cake and eat it too i guess.
