If you do not have time to do this let me know and I will try to contact some businesses.... Also maybe AnhTruan will... his letter to the headlight places sounded like it got good feedback. smile.gif Woot for new items

Guys, face the facts. Don't get your hopes up. The amount of money a company would put into this is something they would never get back. Prices would be high for production AND sales, and it is money they would never get back from a lack of demand. Supply and demand law in full effect. I firmly believe that no company would ever produce these without taking a serious deficit.

By all means, don't let this stop you, I am only trying to be honest.

They don't know about the people not on the site though. They take the risks with other cars because the fanbase is larger.

I am pissing on your parade, I know, but by all means, try.

JDM tails aren't made...they're ordered. They aren't made fresh every time someone buys them. Side skirts are easy because it's a fiberglass mold. Try, please do. If it goes through, I would buy them.

If anyone has a picture of their car in that angle.. I can probably photoshop it on a car if anyone may or is interested in it..

I honestly dont like how it look that much.. but that's just me. Post a pic if anyone want this idea to go through.

by all means GO FOR IT! i don't know who to contact to be honest.

the reason for the oval is because i used the same proportioned circle in the rear and the 3/4 view and it left that huge gap, adn another circle would be cutting it close to bad looking, so i went with the oval...again its just an idea and can be tuned and refined

as far as a prototype i WOULD if I could find some tails in my area to work with ( other than the ones ON my car)

IF this goes through, even in a GB form, they will still be insanely $ -- like afterburners, or higher.

I don't think you'll have any luck, but good luck. wink.gif

Personally I liked these better !!!

I Think that three round circles and the oval is a bit much these are better in my opinion, and i would definitely want them.

Both designs look nice and will probably be a nice asset to the car. But making them right takes skill and you need a good company to make that. But because the market is very limited it would be very hard to get off the grounds (without much R&D money). Goodluck tho, would love to see them on a Celica.
