[Airpoppoff]

only because of the relay effect you can do to the tail lights looks better...

I don't hate them like a lot of people do. In fact,I have them on my car. I think it depends on the car if they look good or not. I think DSMs look great with them. But trucks don't. Civics look pretty good with them,so does Celicas,Probes,Cavaliers,& so on. Just my opinion,though.

Personally, I like altezzas but not the chrome ones, everyone has them and I don't like the center pieces. A buddy of mine gave me some chrome ones without a center piece. I took them apart, painted the chrome a black gloss (to match the car) and painted my rear center piece a black gloss and it looks good and at least somewhat more "original" then the standard altezzas.

I think the chrome altezzas look better on a lighter colored car (white, silver, etc etc) and the carbon fiber altezzas look better on a darker car.

I hated them since none of them really coordinated with my red car. they look better on lighter cars. But i'll consider getting the new ones, the Eurotec altezzas cuz they will look good on my car, they look more classy than the older altezzas.

I had altezzas on my car last year...but did a Supra taillight conversion a few months ago... I like them a LOT better!!

siueclipse--- i like the look of your altezzas, can you tell me how to take them apart like yours, i was trying to do that also, but can't figure out a way to take them apart without breaking them and never be able to put them back together.

Wow that looks sweet siueclipse, i think thats a hell of a better idea then the carbon fiber ones, looks awesome

 

[L2RTSiAWD]

That does look good. I would personally do that or get the CF altezza's....If I ever actually bought them.

 

[siueclipse]

yeah it turned out pretty good. On Oct 14th the car is going in to have a paint job and to have my Evo 3 kit put on, so im going to have them paint the center like they would with the rest of the car.

Not for me.

You drive an Eclipse, not a Toyota Altezza...

I like them as long as the center is painted to get rid of the Las Vegas light show look.

I went down to the local import shop and had them cover my center peice with reflective black vinyl over the top of it, they did a good job i like it....

JOHN-- Do they make altezzas for your car???
