PIC REAR CLEAR LIGHTS.jpg

It as been mentioned about making the top chambers red, these diffusers can be cut out of the stock red ones from the tail lights. therefore a perfect match.

 

I have some clear diffuser plastic that matches perfectly so these can be used for the lower two.

 

However, all these 4 will need glueing, bonding whatever, in place and as the stock 4 pieces sit in a touch and then lock in each chamber, botching would be in order, it's certainly something I could look into but I don't think Z owners are losing sleep over it so therefore demand will be very low as stock 99 rear 3 pieces are incredibly popular and universally desired.

yer you see what i mean if you going to go out your way to have the rear lights looking whiter like in Dave ZX pic above then i just think that they could be not clear but defused white to match if you know what i mean? need to photo shop a pic to see if it would look good or not. what do you say Si

I say it looks a little odd....but that's because I haven't had time to get used to it.

I bet if you were to photoshop the white lens to the top as well i bet that will look so cool being white. go on just do it and prove me wrong.

nice

...And if the reverse light panel was sectioned into 4 separate lights internally, the upper red ones would no doubt be great rear fog lamps....

 

.....And I know I'm probably stating the obvious:wink:

 

 

I already know my vote, option one with the less visible lens' as I believe the other options start to make the back end a bit too 'busy'. (IMO)

 

 

Actually, seeing the rear of Si's car in the above pictures, I'm with Joel. I too prefer the original look as it is less fussy.....:cool:

I have something to say............ It's better to burn out than to fade away..... :tt2:

I have my rear light panel separated into 4 sections with fog and reverse in there, still with option 1 :)
