New lights from APC

I like them. As long as you like it go for it. Everyone will always have opinions. If it suits your tastes then do it :)
 
Do these fit 90-91 cars, if so Im getting them, taking them appart and getting the cf painted to match my nice fresh red paint...this is the classy rice look in my opinion. What do you think?
 
Painted to match the car is the only way I would have those on my car. I do not care much for APC. My M3 mirrors fell apart and a few people in my town had the red piece of the brake lights fall out. Good luck...
 
I let my spokeman show how I feel about anything that comes from the "American Parts Company" that started making all of their products for "Non-American Automobiles"

Has anyone noticed those lights are made by APC, they prolly broke photoshopping them on to his car. Ha Ha. Sorry not a fan of APC at all. You get what you pay for. Fo sho!
 
In my opinion they don't look that bad and if you want to add some style to your old ass 1G they are the only things you can get. Actually they look really sophisticated in the Carbon Fiber. How many old ass cars have really nice unique taillights to add to a car that should really be junked by now. If you are strict racer type of person than.............I guess it is against your religion to add any so called:rolleyes: "rice" so maybe I can understand AWD Turbo guys saying ohhhhh these suck. You can spend all your money on making an old car fast (which could be fun if you got$$$).
However for a 1G guy who will never get enough money to fix up a slow 135hp car then............what the hell why not get some cool looking lights that make the car look up to date and newer?? If you don't like them well........that is your style and your taste, but it doesn't mean everybody should think that they suck. If you want to fit in and be a wanna be racer then I would not get the lights because the Turbo guys said they suck, but if you have faced the fact that a 1990-1994 Eclipse/Talon/Laser is just a slow 135hp car that is becoming ever more old looking with all the newer cars coming out and you want to make your car unique and a little newer than I would get the lights. Maybe not the center piece but at least the sides. There is no respect with a non-turbo DSM whatsoever so why try to pretend it is an AWD by not fixing it up with "rice" or body mods?? If you like your car fixed up you should be glad they make these Tailights for this old car. If you don't like these lights then be glad you don't have to get them:thumb:. I am glad to see them because it is going to make my car look newer and much more unique. I could see not getting them if Non Turbos were really fast and respectable so maybe making it rice would be sacrilegious, but being that a non-turbo is not fast and can't be fast:dsm: At least make the old N/A ones left look cool and let the AWD Turbo guys look stock and be fast. N/A DSM cars usually only get Air Intake, Exhaust and Headers. This will not make them fast so why not at least fix up the style of them to be unique??? Especially if YOU LIKE IT!!! STOP WORRYING ABOUT IF EVERYBODY ELSE LIKES IT!!! Get The Altezza Taillights and if you like them enjoy them like TalonBlingBling etc.:thumb:
 
I agree with Jay..im getting that carbon lights soon, but i have to get my headers and intakes system intalled first...i wish i could modify my non-turbo talon to get up to 190-200hp at least without using NOS or spending money adding turbo system kit :(....Are 135-160 hp dsm still slow against those friggen civics or integra stocks??

the thing that don't like about the tail lights is that they are from APC. I think that anything that APC makes should not be put on your car. Where I am from it is all of the ugly slow cars that have APC.

couldent of said that better myself
 
I think it all depends on what color and style you have on the rest of the car.If you have a colorscheme/theme on the car it might look better with clears or carbon...and on another car it looks like s**T.Some cars look good with one kinda of altezzas and another one dont.I tried to keep the stock lights on my Spyder but it looked worse than with the smoked ones I got now along with the custom centerpiece.Since everything on the car is black/silver/chrome..the red stockers didnt fit in at all,but the smoked ones do.
Nothing can be said in general..I look at each car and evaluate it from there..Some look good and some dont..simple as that.

peace out:)
