IMO- I dont like em, they are so common, everytime you turn your head some honda has slapped em on.

I agree

euro lights wont make you different they will make you like everybody else. a contour makes you different but when you start putting [censored] like that on them then i guess you are just rice at heart. I have seen some tours with fartpipes on them and they look like [censored]. lets get some class guys! You ever heard the saying (this is my motto also) Going fast First Class

some graphics?

thats just as common as euro lights

I personally could care less what everyone else has...I'd get em cuz I like em

Don't even get me started... Owning a contour should be unique enough for you people. For starters, they become more rare everyday making them more and more unique as every year passes. Besides they are tastefully done the way they are. Why go and ruin it w/ some cheap ass crap taillights. I mean really, has anyone ever seen any REALLY good "euro lights"/altezzas/whatever the hell you want to call them?? What's the point? Almost all the ones I see are all turning yellow and hazing so bad, makes them look even worse... There's already enough of a problem w/ the headlights yellowing and hazing, why in the hell would you put these things back there when all they're gonna do is yellow and haze because they are made out of cheap ass plastic. Production run of the mill garbage ex. APC style crap is just that, CRAP. Show me an aftermarket clear tail light that looks good and will stay crisp and clear, then we'll talk. until then, leave that crap to the riced out hondas. Don't degrade a the tour. I did some sweet ass tail lights for static that I bet a bunch of you would like 1000 times better than those fugly euro's...

Ive never seen any graphics that are the same, some may not like them, but i think they add originality and "FLARE" to your ride. It is definately a head turner for me, so IMO- Who can complain when people gawk over your car?

well it is time that i bust out the tail lights for your fools, and dont let stolon fool you . he may have painted them but i desigened it and did the prototype (however you spell it) for it so it was a joint project. although he is a master at sand and paint and dont mind the dirt on the car it was a bad week here when these were taken

Looks good!

I have never understood why they call them Euro lights. I have never seen a European car (avalable in the states at least) come with those.

W3RD!!! they are Japo tails maybe... Just call them Altezzas, that's what they are... I think people call them "euros" because they can neither say, nor spell Altezza!!!

Actually this design is nothing new. Honkeytonkmonkey did this to his taillights on his contour like a year or more ago. But on a black tour it looks sweet, especially when it's all washed and shining.

I've seen smoked clear lenses on Stangs that look pretty good, IMO
