Default Aftermarket tail lights anyone? Picture request.

Looking to replace my tail lights. None of the ebay auctions have installed pics. If you have bought any of the Altezza or Z pattern tail lights, please grab a pic for me. Or if you happen to see a pic of another Z, post it please. Especially looking for them on Silverstone. Thank you.

if someone had actually purchased those particular lights (the Z ones) and posted the pics on here, that would have been a flamefest.

Hah that's no good. I think they look pretty good. Maybe the Z ones arent your type but there are about 5 different styles.

Bleh put 06+ OEM LED tails on your car if you want nice tail lights. Ebay lights are cheap quality and ugly

Okay, I'll stay away from the Z model. Found installed pics on a blue car, understood now lol. I do plan on the JDM or another style with black housing. And Iam also looking at the JDM black housing headlamps. The tail lights arent a rush, but my head lights are clouding over and the lights no longer seem as bright from them. Almost hit someone a few nights ago, couldnt see them at all.

I would def suggest you to buy the 06 LEDs. That's what I have. Def. worth the money. Don't buy these ebay crap..they'll most likely fade and foggy in a very short period of time...Oh and someone here had a hard time with those ebay "LED look alike" tail lights too

if you got HID's the black housing lights on ebay will not work since they are halogen. it is either a DIY on them or have someone else do it for you (Cincity designs). as for the outer cover, use a mothers powerball and some meguiers plastX. take your time and the results will be worth it
