    its interesting for lack of a better word. the tail lights do look pretty cool and dont seem that hard to make just a bit of modification to the rear bar and some round lamps but personally wouldnt do that to my fto.

    LOL thats what i was thinking hahah... are they from u or somebody else doing something similar? since the logo is in a different place

    but those are some hot hot hot tail lights omg... The good thing about these compared to Project f/altezza lights are, that the lights themselves don't look expensive, its the mould in the read bar.. which I'm guessing wouldn't be as expensive as buying a pair of projectf/altezzas
    very very interesting...

      Getting it done

      Post by dstocks »

      Just rang the local fibreglass specialists here is Canberra and asked how much something like this might cost to do. About $1000 was the answer I got. This does not cover off the legalities of actually doing this, the cost of the actual lights, or whether a standard rear bar could be modified to cater for those two cutouts. Having said this, if we could get a mould made that could be reused the cost would come down.

        I think you mean "heaps less" not lesser :P
        ah god im a smartass :lol:

        Well the legalities.. because it bores into the rear bar, you can't really see the lights unless directly behind the car almost... I could see this causing a major problem

        Closer Look

        Post by dstocks »

        If you have a closer look, the outside one is not fully recessed into the light, which means it could theoretically be seen from the side....
