I've realized that I don't really like the JDM tails (don't wanna offend anyone, it's just my personal opinion that they look too much like my factory ones, I actually thought they were JDM after buying the car and reading about them here because they look so much alike...)
I have a red Celi, so I wanna smoke 'em, but then I worry that you'll be able to see the difference between the amber and red lenses and it'll look funny... ~sigh~ I'll figure it out. I probably have to red out the amber first and then smoke the whole tail, huh? --------------------  "I bet you drive a standard." "You could make some money off that bet." :D |

I think this has been posted before but just interest sake for those who are into DIY:
http://www1.bbiq.jp/burialc2/LED04/index.html http://www1.bbiq.jp/burialc2/led-tail/index.html I really like the tails in the second link and if someone can make it or mass produce would be awesome. |

been made similar to the way I made mine to be honest, good on them for trying.
Don't think I like the round indicator as well, looks a bit too much, I went with 3 straight vertical lines for my indicators, but would possibly try to have them bend around the curve of the taillight if I were to do make them again. Unfortunately remaking mine are now well down on the list of my priorities, hit a concrete block that was just sitting in the road just after a dark corner the other month so am having to rebuild my front valance because of that, got some fibreglass front wings to put on after bonding in some vents. Also the vent I bonded into the top of the front bumper is starting to crack so need to tackle that too, shame its now winter so flipping cold out in my shed now bbbrrrrrrr |
