    Re: New taillights!

    It does not have the clear indicators as these are solidly red... or that is what I was able to deduce from the image.

    Looks good to me!!

    Anything you can do to_simplify_ these cars improves their looks, IMO.

    They're getting too stylized and "jazzed up" as the leave the factory.

    Re: New taillights!

    They look sharp on the white car (better than the other pictures I've seen), but I still hate cars where the rear turn signals aren't yellow. Seems cheap to me.

    I'll stick with the stock lights.

    I like it at a white car, not sure about the other colours.

    Yes good point R. You're keying into the color as a variable. E.g. too much red on a silver car might look funny.

    BUT: Too much red on Rosso Corsa?! NEVER!

    That's exactly why I can't understand the hype for red brake calipers at a rosso corsa car.

    I think if it were illegal it would be to _sell_ the car as new with them. If you changed them yourself I think for a cop to nail you for it would be extremely prick-y thing to do.

    BTW, the CGT has all-red units. THAT means our cars would be good to have them too. I'm not totally sure but because every picture I have of the CGT has totally red tails, I think they ALL do (even USA ones).

    Yeah, looking good! It amazes me; I think Jaason (atomic) had them on his blue turbo, and that didn't look any good at all. Now I see them on white, and it looks good! Funny.
