Custom Heads and Tails - ROUND 2

Got a couple of minutes and ripped the old vinyl off the headlights,
this is what I came up with, I'll get some pictures of the heads and tails tonight too, I didnt do anything to the tails from my 1st attempt yet, but I'll post em again.



HEADLIGHTS :





THIS IS with the signal light covered I might do it, i think i'll look good, wiring will suck balls though.:



AND THESE ARE THE TAILS:







Let me know what you think of round 2, I'm personally not sure about em, I like the signal covered, but we'll see after a couple days.

NO DOES NOT LOOK GOOD IMO. Do the red/clear tail lights and do the AE mod to the headlights and clear bumper lights and everything will look much better.

.....(sighs); Anyways as for the 240's comment, they can be tastefully done as well. Infact, I'm thinking of using some maxima tricks (Ie. AE and DTM) on my friends S14.





but yeah back from OT just give it up or if you must go get some VHT.

It def. looks better than the first version in my opinion, I'll give you that. But wouldn't the vinyl affect your headlight output?

My opinion after seeing it tonight is that it looks like a silvia. not a bad thing.... if it WAS a silvia, but its a max, so I dunno i will prolly end up just buying nice headlights and tails, but this excepade only cost me 20$ so it was wortha shot, IMO it looks way better than stock, but needs a grill......

i will say it looks cool as hell at night, but the actual headlight is nothing special. If you like it that is all that matters man, and all the power to you.
