    Euro Tail Lights

    How many 3G's would buy Euro Tail Lights if they were to be manufactured by a company? I think I have found a Aftermarket Accessory company that would make lights for our cars if there was a market for them (if enough people bought them)

    I fully agree, blazin. Even if I did like them, since apc got ahold of them they are on every other sled now. Ick.

    I would kill for red/clear lights.... but it's not going to happen.. The market is too smal for the 3g Accord.

    I personally like the carbon fiber...the G2's, I believe. I think it'd be even sweeter to paint the inside (the chrome or CF part) the color of the car...I've always though that'd be clean.

    i think altezza belong only on the the Altezza (IS300) it just looks tacky on the rest of cars... the only one i saw that looked pretty good are the carbon fiber altezzas on dark colored cars.

    I would put some Altezza on my car after I give it a nice dark blue paint job. Then it would look sweet.

    only on a candy apple red car
    i used to hate that altezza looking bullshit til about a week ago i saw a red 4g lude w/ chrome trim that had alteaza and it actually looked RIGHT for once b/c teh lamps matched the rest of the car
    mostly around here it's just fuckin yellow/green crx's and red dots on chrome diamond cut loooking shit just DOESN'T LOOK RIGHT ON THAT

    I would propably buy them if they looked have decent, but I get the feeling that they're wouldn't be any made for the hatches.

    I would be interested but i would do the same as cdscowboy suggested and paint the chrome/carbon fibre portition to match the car, i am think i might pick up a set of stock 3g accord lights and horse around and see what type of conversion i could build. Buddy of mine has a set of chrome style ones for his civic and i was looking at them and figured i could disassemble them and make use of the red lense portion and build a set of my own.

    ok, i had said something quite a while back about a tail light swap. there are tails from newer model imports that fit correct? i was told at one time tails from like a civ or accord or something could swap without much modding. if that is so, check for euro's that can be swapped on that car. if there are some, use those and mod them like you would have to the stock lights. wouldn't that work??? i would think someone else would've thought of this as well. i'm hoping that wasn't difficult to follow, and if it's possible say so. don't, not say anything just because you think it wouldn't look good. give them the info so they can find out for themselves.

    Euro/altezzas went the way of balloon pants IMO. They're so out of style its not funny. Euro's say RICE. You might as well have a bigass APC sticker on your windshield. Now if they made the red/white tails for our car, that would be hella badass, cause those look nice and clean.

    Altezza's....NO Jaguar Style Tail Lights would look good. BUT, JDM or USDM Tail Lights where the Amber lens is clear. SEMI CLEAR! ALL THE WAY BABY.

    I would must likely not get them because I just don't think they'd look good on my car. My car is a gold/brown color (Its the color in the picture in my avatar); I just don't think it would look good.
