new40z Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=129441 Hey cool-- I just figured out how to attach a link. Heres some other pic's of my taillights and the rest of my car as well. I had already completed my lights when I saw Dan's car, I had also already bought my paint. Strange coincidence? Maybe, Dans car was very inspirational. Whenever I thought I would never finish I would pull up a pic of Dan's car and it kept me moving forward . John P.

phil280zxt Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 I'm looking for input on whether I should continue with my taillight swap. The upper taillight lens on the left is from Klearz. What do you think, left or right looks best? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.I.jonas Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 I think the left one is pretty cool!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daeron Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 How is the quality of the back-up light through that smoked lens?? Personally, I don't care too much for it, but the back-up light would be the deciding factor. It looks to me like that lens may tint the color of the light too much for my taste. Backing up at night is enough fun with feeble lighting from the 80's (or older) and I wouldn't be able to see if it were darkened much. Then again, my night vision plays havoc with me when I have conflicting light and dark areas, so that may just be me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nismopick Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Kinda looks like burnt plastic to me. Definitely not the "clear euro" look most people go for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gollum Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 phil280zx - I'd have a hard time deciding from here, but I think in person it'd look great with the right accents. If you were using a dark rim with a crome lip, and the smoke headlight covers it might really come together for a good look. If you were going for those dark accents in other areas the stock tail lights would be kinda obnoxious. I say go with it. Looks like they use the stock housing so it wouldn't be that hard to replace if you didn't like them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil280zxt Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Gollum, I need to actually do them justice by installing both sides and taking the pictures outside with the entire car in perspective. My Z is two tone, silver over blue. The black lens accent the dark tinting of the bumpers, t-tops and the quarter and hatch windows which are also tinted. I have already installed the smoked front turn signal and side markers. I agree with those that say stock is best and I certainly don't want my to take on a "ricer" image. But, what else can one do in the middle of winter but tinker with the Z while it's hybernating? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plexus Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 i like phils280zxt's lights however in my opinion they would look more appealing with a darker shade of blue or darker color period, plus that bumper has that crome band in it, if that was blk or the bumper was of the color matched type i think it would really come together. but that just my 2 cents. i would like to se the better pics though to form and evan better conclusion on them. good luck, i plan on tinting mine. my 280zx is all black with color matched f and b bumpers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
