I think it looks good man. I prefer red/clears but you get an A for effort. Props for trying something new, keep trying unique stuff like that and posting it up.

KJS2023

not bad man I have to say it indefinitely is cooler considering no one else has done it to their car. If you can straighten out the lines a little I think it would make it look a little nicer.

Thats a nice lil mod you came up with.I might do it,I might keep it on my tail lights for awhile,but first I gotta fix up my car.

Dark99GLE

iTrader: (2)

eh, has a bit too much of an 80s aesthetic for my liking

snowboi1289

iTrader: (3)

Has anybody tried this mod with the headlights and all the other lights ???

psu2fan

iTrader: (2)

not bad at all for 40min. job. if you spent a day on em, making sure they're even and level they might look pretty decent. you'd have to tape the inside of the lens tho I'd imagine for them to even be semi permanent.

yeah i see how it resembles the pontiac look... i don't necessarily think the look is crap, it's just the car (pontiacs) is.

psu2fan

iTrader: (2)

umm.. I seriously hope not

snowboi1289

iTrader: (3)

I ment like the side marker lights.II'm just saying,I dont know if it would look cool,but maybe some company will come up with the chrome pipes or something in the front headlights.

And I dont fail at life,you did already,lol.But dude,why you even say something like that?? SPAM !!!!!

98 degreez indeed

for originality, how do you think it's going to hold up to the elements, none the less humidity + heat?

arrocha87

but it should hold up pretty gud. i did this to my civic in super humid miami, fl and it was still gud 7-8 months l8r when i sold it... although i did use pin striping tape or watever its called 4 da civic.

in a related story, i used to drive a mercury tracer. i got bored one day and got creative...the rear end used to read:

TRACER________________MERCURY

so i broke off the T and R from tracer, and the ME from mercury, and glued the ME next to RACE, to read RACE ME. then, i covered the reflectors with electrical tape, as an alternative to blacking them out. i got some good replies on it.

also, i got a ticket in it one time, and the police man actually wrote "RACE ME" for the MAKE/MODEL.

funny thing about that is, the car has 88hp lawlz!

As long as you like it, good effort.

Could be worse. I think it would look better only on the brake lights.
