tail light


here is a cool idea for u that want to change ur tiallights but dont want to dish out 300 for the altezza's and this is what im gonna do to mine.

ever seen cars and trucks driving around and they have the emblem of the manufature in the taillights? ex chevy truck light up with a bowtie when they hit the breaks. well how about taking out the taillight and painting it the color of ur car and leaving a in the middle to light up when u hit the breaks. and of corse leave a little circle for the backup lights. ever seen a chevy malibu driving around and it seems like the lights are painted but the red circles are left out? thats what im talking about. it cant cost too much for a body shop guy to paint them. just my .02

might look good.

On my integra the rear were sprayed wih a winyl acura emblem, so you could only see the emblem when braking, otherwise the sticker was hident with the black tint.

Altough I think this mod is rice today, too many done this, too many done it bad.

Painting the rear to have another shape could be nice, much nicer than having the emblem IMO..

it will look nice but, if you paint the tail lights the good ol cops will pull you over. If you are thinkin about doin it try it with the vinyl.
