New TYC Altezzas for 02-03 Lancer

Alright, I know that most of you don't really like altezzas, but I thought I'd inform the few that do. I don't think that anyone has said anything about these yet. I was at my friends auto parts/performance shop and he got in a new catalog from TYC. They are coming out with a set of altezzas that look like the Evolution VIII tailights. These come in a choice of chrome, black or carbon fiber. I tried to get a price, but when I called the company, they said that these will not be out for another 2-3 weeks. I would say that since they are TYC, they are gonna be a bit pricey (around 200-300), but the quality of TYC is a lot better than most other companies. Just thought I'd let ya know.

Yeah, their site is as shown below:

www.elegantebytyc.com

There was another thread ALL about Altezzas (It started off as a group buy). So try running a search next time.

yeah, I really like these. In the catalog, they are an EXACT copy of the evo VIII ones, and the color choices are what's selling me on them. I don't particulary care for altezzas, but these look good. Especially the carbon fiber ones.

What's always killed me about altezzas was the fact that they look so out of place with all that friggin reflective silver material. I'm not a Big Tymer, so I don't want all that chrome.

CF =

Still waiting to hear back from TYC vendor. I will try to scan the catalog to show you guys the actual picture in the catalog. Hopefully they'll let me know soon. It's only been about a week, so i'm guessing the first week of may.
