    I think they look good. Now throw in L.E.D bulbs if you can get them, and that would look wicked. But I still want to see them on your car.

    actualy blazin suggested a good idea.
    some of us have other cars besides our 3geez and some of our 3geez are off the road for the winter or at least could be off the road for a week or two.


    how long would it take you to do up tails like that? obviously you have the talent and the know how. i and many other members would probably love to send you our tails and some $$ to do them for us. beter you do it with experience then us with none.

    how much do you think you could do them for? parts/labor with shipping depending on the person.? and how long would it take you to do a pair?

    Those are some of the best custom tails i've seen. I LOVE the SI style tails. Although i'd prefer a fogged upper part instead of a totally clear one.

    Hey bitesize, i think hatchy tails would be HARD to do since they're so different from the coupe/sedan tails.

    They look real good, I think I'd have done them with a small red piece on top though not orange.

    i was thinking about this and i bet you can take apart the tail lights like i did with my g/f once piece headlights. They're held together the same way. I used a hair dryer on high heat and it loosened up the silicone glue enough to where you could pry them apart. I think i'm gonna try it and see how well they come apart.
