Instead of doing LED conversion, buy new taillights?

Hi guys,
today I saw some taillights for the lara..

I would like to know if you ever saw them on roads,pics,etc...

I wrote an email to the company to know if they look like that or it's a wrong picture..

doing LED conversion will be a problem because I need my car each day and it will take days to make them right...so it can be a simple solution to refresh the look of the car...

the second pics seems was different shape of our lights...I dont know what to think abou that..

what you think?

I'd recommend against getting Altezzas; if nobody else on the street screams rice, you'd bet a million dollars that almost everybody on here will.

II would like something else than Altezzas, thats why I show you theses pictures to know if they exist like on the pics,I think they look nice on he first pic..a little reminder of the Gen1 taillights.. my taillights are getting moisture and Im tired to dry them with a blower ech time I go to the car wash..so i want new taillights..if nothing except Altezzas exist,I will maybe buy the gun metal Altezzas and tint them more with a tint film...

somebody ever saw aftermarket taillights other than Altezzas??

:cry: the company don,t seem to help me very much,they just give me a phone number and ask me to call them..so stupid.

I guess that the only choice is the altezzas..the gunmetal are not that bad but a bit too much racing,I prefer "pimp" or class stuff..

I still get 3 months to think about it, when spring will be there Im gonna work on the car to make it looks as I want.

I saw a nice black Solara on a website..here the link

http://custom.autos.yahoo.com/gallery/p ... rt=0&sel=0

I think the altezzas looks better on a black car. On my white Lara I dont know how it would look...

Maybe it would look good if I buy the gun metal taillights, and instead of "backout" my headlight.. I would gun metal the lips around the headlight just like the "JDM" aftermarket headlight on ebay. WOuld it looks great?

You could buy the "euro" tail lights, and tint the brake area red.
