Default Pic 2 - circular light...

And here's an attempt to "place" a circular light on the inside. . . If I had more time I'd try to color match the body to the light housing, but, I don't, so you kinda get what I'm getting at.

Pretty much what he said. You run the risk of being attacked by others if you do the altezza and neon light combo to the Z.

barf comes to mind

j/k - I agree with what was said above...Altezas belong on Altezas...even on the "original car" they don't look good.

To each his own of course, but there are some parts that truly are better left stock.

The only thing nice about clear tails is that it compliments the headlights up front to make it look the same front to back...if you're going for that type of look.

Just not my thing I guess. Maybe on a different color, but on the black it looks to me like the lights stand out too much now. Kinda like the dual exhaust tips, tho!

the tails and tips are photoshopped.

A clear tail with the insides painted matte black wouldn't look bad or clear with a light smoked tint to it.

Clear taillights suck. They are never quite clear. It reminds me of when kids try installing clear parts on their model kits with krazy glue and the platic gets all smoky.

Most of all......
