EvilRufusKay Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Still trying to decide and I am getting close to wanting to install. Ifyou have a couple free minutes check out the links and let me know what you prefer... I am partial to the Ferrari.... The newer type lenses would be butcherd. I would remove the inner individual lens parts and ditch the rest. ... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33716&item=7969405603&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34207&item=4544859571&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33716&item=7969100517&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=42613&item=7969068125&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33647&item=7969604453&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33716&item=7969531010&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34207&item=4544149722&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33716&item=7969450559&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33716&item=7969450559&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34207&item=4544384935&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34207&item=4544344664&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34207&item=4544332902&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34207&item=4544317501&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34207&item=4543607657&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34207&item=4544159242&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34207&item=4542955072&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33716&item=7969264407&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34207&item=4543918841&rd=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparks280zt Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I really like those RX7 lights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z-TARD Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 As disgusting as I find the new H2's, the carbon tail lights for it are really cool looking. A little surgery and those would pop right in. A lot of those other lights looked a little too 3 dimensional to work very well on the back of a Z, although with a welder and some more sheetmetal I'm sure you could fix that The Ferrari tail lights are very cool, but a little pricey, and most people would just confuse them for Skyline or Vette lamps. You might want to take a look at some of the LED lights available for trailers and other industrial vehicles, still pricey, but cheaper than a lot of the euro style lights, and probably more durable too. Your car is coming along really well, definitely going to be one of the more original and inspirational cars on here when it's done. Keep up the good work man, Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TegRacer324 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I dunno I really like those Ferrari lights. I think they would just look sexy, although he is right about them getting confused with a lot of other stuff. I've always been partial to the older round lights though like in the first one I think it was since the Ferrari's are a bit pricey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewievette Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 Those Ferrari lights are exactly what I've been looking to put on my car! Although they are expensive, there's nothing like original parts! If you want the look of the ferrari lights without the expense (not as much anyways) Buy a set of R32 Skyline lights and cutout the centers and replace them with cheap clear lenses. It'll take a bit of fussing, but if done correctly you wont be able to tell the difference and about $100 less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaime240z Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 Evil, wow you posted alot of links. I think I looked at every single one, but have you considered Supra TT tailights? Some might think they are a bit ricey, but if you're going for a more modern look they might be a good fit! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7970102064&category=33716&sspagename=WDVW There is a slight curve in them but should fit with some work! just a thought.

240Z2NV Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 I think that you might ease the 'mind melt' if you narrow your options a bit....pretty much all across the board in terms of shapes and sizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maichor Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 If you like the Ferrari Lights, you should check out the '50 Pontiac reproduction lights from http://www.speedwaymotors.com I have been happy with the quality. You can also get the LED conversion or LED bulbs for them. They are a glass, not plastic, 4" diameter to the outside of the bezel and come with bulbs, pigtails, and rubber seal and are easier to mount than the Ferrari style.

1 tuff z Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 what about the new mustang taillights? it appears they they mount flat and the size is close to what the z's have now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueovalz Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Look at early '70s Vette lights as well if you're looking at round ones. Similar to the Camaro, but a little different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boodlefoof Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 I'm going with C5 'Vette tail lights on my project. Using the euro version which incorporates the backup light. I think they look sweet. ; ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warren Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 Did somebody mention 2005 Mustang Taillights? Already been done on my ZX...probably WAY too large for a Z's rear panel. And YES, they are pretty flat, but still have some curve to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
