Yeah I wasn't even going to address the "logical" comment. Pretty much a no brainer.

*** all those haters out there. why the hell do some of you people spend $400 on a set of taillights. like you have nothing better to do than blow a huge amount of money on 06 taillights which have an ugly *** pattern in the first place.

let this kid make up his own mind and decide for himself, those taillights DO look ugly but still, he can make that decision on his own. Threads like this are worthless.

here is a pic for the deuche bag from VA who wanted to see the lights. I made this for my MR2 for less than $20 for the materials and did the same exact thing for my 350z as well. There is your justification for spending less than $200. If you think it looks like **** then *** you, I'd rather spend money on doing something custom like this with LEDs that actually make a decent shaped pattern compared to those nasty *** 2006 LEDs which look like a broke *** triangle.

$400 dollars is a huge amount of money? ... let me guess you also put 87 octane in your Z.

BTW I said POST PICS OF YOUR G35 STYLE LEDS. Not your MR2. I guess I had to do it for you.

I hope you do this at every stop light. So you can spare the pain everyone behind you is suffering by looking at those god awful taillights.

To the op, Those lights are horrendous. Think about what you are doing not just to your car, but to every Z out there when people see your car. Those lights look like they came off a new Mitsu Eclipse! We are above that, don't drop all of us to that level.

To Hate, what is with the bumps on your lights man? How did you do that? Do they have an infection or something?

Good. It's really too bad when people feel the need to rice up their Z's with crappy parts. Spending money to make it look worse than stock ftl.

Man people sure do like to rag on eachother here for every little mod they do or decide to do to their Z.... Then again when a thread is started to ask about some kind of mod or product this is what you get people arguing about it or hateing on eachother. To each his own guys, this world would be boring if everyone followed eachother, had the same job, banged the same chick or wore the same thing everyday. If you can save some more money to get the oem 06 lights (if you like them) then just wait for those, but if you really want the aftermarket ones and you like those then get them.

Yanno, I really hate those tails too, but the rest of the car really isnt that bad IMO. I actually like it. To each his own.

I cannot believe people like ANY of those aftermarkets. I have problems buying anything for my car. Nissan did a great job. Hard to make it better!

Keep in mind, 99% of aftermarket tails make Civic's look cheap. Your car cost 2x as much as a Civic, try to keep it looking upscale.

Don't buy parts JUST to buy parts, thats for high schoolers...
