JUST TO CLARIFY, cause this can be confusing to some..., Vertex is a brand name that Car Make T&E markets various kits. Car Make T&E also makes other car kit brands as shown in the link below:

Yashio Factory is a tuning company, similar to Top Secret. Car Make T&E makes the KAZ kit for Yashio Factory.

CarlosCh, where are you?

Here's a link to his home page, which has 7 pages of his car... so lots of pics for you to decide if it's worth it.

So it's like saying Rays (T & E) makes Volk Racing (Vertex) rims and Nismo (Kaz) Rims (body kit).

Hey guys, that's my redline up there

First thing I did when I got my Z was to upgrade to JDM tailights... I know that this is a love/hate situation for most, but for me it was love!

About pics, well, let me see... that one up there is probably amongst the best I have of that angle. Here are some others, none too recent though:





Will try to take a few updated ones and post them... but this is pretty much how they look... at night they are great!

I really think they are a great choice for Black 350Z's. Fades the tail lights out and lets people focus on the rims and body IMO Ill post pics next page.

Have you guys thought of tinting them? FXs come with the same style clear tails, some have tinted with black bordering around lighting, or tinted them with color matched accents.

Oh, I forgot I did this when I changed the tails for the LED's, a little comparison:

I updated the original post to include 3 vendors here. The links are at the bottom and link directly to the JDM taillights.

Hmmm... I'm seriously considering these... But I'm unsure how they would look on a DB???

Has anyone considered color matching to the vehicle using the the corner area of the taillight? the pic of the silver Z gave me the idea.
