Tail lights


Hatch92

Recommended Posts

i'm just wondering why everyone hates aftermarket tail lights all together. i mean i can understand the silver altezza's on a black car, but why does everyone hate the black housed tail lights on a black car? same thing with a white car yea the black tail lights look like crap, but why don't the silver ones look good? i'm just tryin to figure out why everyone hates the lights all together. i mean i'm not fond of the stock ones but that's me, but for some of the people that keep the stock lights they try to make them darker or change those so in a way they are tring to make the stock lights into an aftermarket light.

Uhh, because they're ugly and sealed bad so they leak unless you properly seal them, which most people don't bother to do, so they look that much worse.

it really depends on the lights. some arnt bad. i usually dont like altezzas, but i like the ones i have over the stock ones. i know they dont add hp, and you can call me a ricer, but whatever, i like them.

I like mine (smoked stock tails). I've seen a few that look good (such as airjordan's) but most just seem so outlandish that they don't at all. I dunno. It's just something so many people do when all they have on their car is an intake and they think it makes their car fast so people tend to stay away from them if they actually know what they're doing.

Some cars look absolutly horrible with them hense Preludes because the tail lights are sooo big, but the IS300 and Evo comes stock with them so I guess they look good on those.. Did you know the reason they call them Altezza tail lights is becuase the IS300 in Japan is called a Toyota altezza.

its because those tailights are so huge. if you sprayed some transparent black over those, it might look better and go with the rest of your blacked out theme. but if you like them, its your car, keep em. dont change them because other people hate

90, I like both of the first two. But I agree on the 3rd one.

 

92hatch, I agree, I don't like stocks, but I also don't like a lot of aftermarket's either.....such as mine.

 

It has to look clean and match the color theme, and I'll like 'em. I would change mine to some similar to your's (black housing, like my headlights) if I had some money, but for now, they stay. My car looks like a ricer no matter what anywyas, so why bother changing a couple things?

 

I have no idea what this guy was thinking with these headlights, and these tails. They should at least match.

He probably did the tails before he painted it.
