Anyone ever done the necessary body work to accommodate coupe/vert tail lights on a Coupe?? Reason I ask is because I love curren tails.......and since the car is in the body shop anyway........

I think the jdm hatch tails look better then the curren ones.
The rear end probably wouldn't flow as well as it does with those tails on there.

I've going about the JDM hatch tail lights and those would be easier, but (and no offense to anyone here) they're SOOOOO played out. The split red/white curren tails are just beautiful to me and to see them on a hatch would make the keyed in enthusiast do a double take.

Definately would be an original idea (doubt it's been done). Honestly, I like my Currens way more than the hatchback's JDM tails. But you would have to shorten the height of the tail light housing and extend it on the sides iirc to get them to fit.
