Does anyone know of a website, or manufacturer of carbon fiber or black euro tail lights for a 95 talon.
 
I've looked every where, and can't find any. If you want them now, there is a couple of things that you can do, but it's going to take a little customizing. Get yourself the tail-lights that you like for an eclipse. Here the tricky part. The tail-lights themselves will bolt in, but you can't use the center piece...

1. Leave the center piece off, and use the factory center piece. Personally, I don't think that the red and amber factory center piece would look well with your new tail lights.

2. Leave the center piece of the altezzas off, and paint your factory piece to match your Talon. You can either tape off the "TALON" logo and paint the rest, I only say this because the logo is raised, or paint the whole thing.

3. If you want to use the altezza center piece, replace your rear bumper with an eclipse bumber, or buy an after market bumper. That way you can move your license plate to the bumper and get rid of the factory center piece and use the altezza one. If you go this route, you will need to route your reverse lights to the bumber.

Any of those ways should work, the only thing that concerns me is the bulb assembly setup. Talons have a dedicated bulb for the talon section of the factory lens, but I'm not sure of how the eclipse's setup is. You may need to get some eclipse bulb sockets, and rewire the whole thing. Come this spring, I'm going with number three on the list. Hope this helps.
 
that wont work because the eclipse lights arent as tall as the talon lights, so if you swapped just the outer lenses on your talon and kept the talon bumper, you would have a gap under the lights. i think that is what he was saying. you need to replace all three taillight peices with ones made for the eclipse and get an eclipse bumper. or you could paint the talon ones all red or get some nightshades spray and black them out. other than that, they dont make aftermarket talon tails.
 
i painted my center part . looks great. not ghey like altezzas either IMO
