Euro spec Tails, 56k....Migga what? Options

[devilsden97]

So. this was a bit of a 6gc.net underground move. Before photos are posted, I like to thank Batman722, and Malpaso for helping me obtain these tail lights. With out either of them, I probally wouldnt have gotten them.

Ok...on with the show.





you might be asking yourself, "those look like my USDM tails..." I'm here to tell u they are not. Sadly I forgot to take a photo of the car with 1 USDM tail in, and 1 Euro spec tail in. You'll just have to take my word that there is a stuble difference.

Ok, so I had the car, and the camera out...so I went on a mini/quick photo shoot.



^bugs and rock chips....ew. oh well.

Looks real good...but where is the pic of your shaved head?

[Kadett]

What's the difference with USDM tails?

[devilsden97]

What's the difference with USDM tails?

I figured someone would want to know.

USDM:

The corner has a red square and an extra bulb.

Euro Spec Tails:

No red square, and it won't light up.

IMO its a cleaner tail then the USDM, and I didn't want the JDM tails because everyone and there brother here has them.

[Kadett]

Its indeed alot cleaner then the USDM.

But your logic about the JDM tails confuses me. I dont add/buy stuff for the celica to be unique, I do it because I like it not because it makes me stand out of the crowd. I'm the one that drives my car everyday not some other 6GC member If that was the case I would have swapped in a 4A-FE with 13 " steel rims and so on

true.

IMO tho, originality is cooler/better then being run of the mill/unoriginal and getting the same items as everyone else. Yes the JDM tails are "nice," but I personally like the idea of the Euro Spec tails, because there slightly different, and no one really knows except me.

I guess its just a matter of opinion and the way you look at it, Thanks for the input Kadett.

(btw id love to see your car rocking steelies and a 4a..lol)

thouse look good migga. Not very often do you see some one going for a euro look. I was thinking of gettin a set of thouse b4, but i liked the jdm ones better. but they look good man

[Remy]

I have them on my car too they're jdm/euro tails. They give it a nice clean look.

[CelicaST_CALI]

how much did u pay for them?

[Remy]

I bought my pair when I first bought my car I paid 120 shipped though I hear you can get them cheaper now.

[Culpable04]

talis !

[CelicaST_CALI]

SO ur saying u paid 120$ to remove a light from ur taillights...wow someone has to much $.....

[devilsden97]

i paid $120 shipped to me from the Czech Republic.

I knew the money was going to another celica owner, so I dont/didnt mind.

[CelicaST_CALI]

ok w/e its ur $,it just seems kinda a waste,btw anyone got any links about curren tails i cant find any...

[malpaso]

First some repost about how Euro tails works





---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

now about price (I have no problem to share with that . $120 minus paypal fee, minus exchange rate, minus shipping => $62 for pair

First I asked Toyota how much are new and (someone would be surprised) price for new pair is the same like JDM ones is! Then I called local junk yard where for sure they have some for sale and they told me: "$100 for pair"

so... IMHO about $60 is fair price for me and if anyone would like to have another set just add my costs to junk yard price and let me know

[Remy]

SO ur saying u paid 120$ to remove a light from ur taillights...wow someone has to much $.....

I paid 120 *shipped* shipping was half that.

[tomazws]

Honestly I couldn't spot the differences until you showed it

[CelicaST_CALI]

it is clear that you haven't been on the forums long enough. there are a lot of mods for the 6th gen that I would never do to my car but someone will. different people have different taste and we all should accept that fact. I have stuff on my car that I KNOW very few people would find tastefull but at the end of the day is my car; so if Migga wanted Euro tails for his celi, that's what he got and e's happy.

don't burn the brigde specially when you need to go to the other side

Exactly... just for your info folks. My next upgrade will be JDM/USDM rear plate frame. Every single celi around here has frame like this:



I don't like it. I want same frame like Japan model has.



Not that Euro one. And you bet there are many people who would like to have my Euro frame for sure! It's for the same reason. To be unique

[Batman722]

I think the early JDM/euro tails look pretty darn good on your car Migga
