My .02 ¢ is that the way the tail lights are on contiques, gives it class, It makes the contiques stand out. Different from the others and that is what every body tries to achive. Later

The only tail light conversion I would like to see is an S2000 conversion....someone did a photoshop a while back and it looked good. Either that or the MX-5 Miata tail light

yeah like they said, it does take our cars another step towards rice, that is one of the firs things that ricers do to their cars, plus i think the rear of the tour has PLENTY of class from the back, whited out lights would make it look a little too ricey, just my opinion...

Maybe y'all should do a search for the pics of Chris's tail lights..... unless his plans have changed, not exactly Altezzas, and not exactly clear... They looked like they would fit the styling of the car very well....
97 Zetec MTX Sport Esslinger UDP; Nology HotWires and BERU Silverstones; Sylvania Silverstars (high beam in low beam) Dual Fiamm air horns Mk1 Mondeo Clear corners(and yes I made them fit....) Boston FS80's in the front
Micah's PRE98 SVT front bumper, W/ Mirko splitter(yet to be painted)
Rally drivers do it sideways......

Reallyt, whats this whole thing with "Rice"??? Can someone define to me what makes a car rice? From what I read around here, anything that has ever been put on a honda, acura, etc. is considdered rice! Thats crazy! We all need to quit using the word rice for everything that we personally dont think looks good. I, along with some other people, think that the clear tail lights would look good. Like it was said, chris' lights are a sweet mix of a few different stylings. Just because it is not your thing, doesnt mean it is rice.

Watch The Fast and the Furious, they are all over in there.
Also considered, anything that resembles a modified import. Aircraft wing, clear lenses, fart pipe, huge body kit, lowered(so low you get scrapage, when you hit a bump), etc.
