miniphoto shoot of DrLove's Altezza Tinted Tails

by **DrLove** » Sun Feb 17, 2008 2:28 pm

LatinUSMC asked me to take pics from my taillights that he made.

I use 3457 bulbs to get 20% more lights than stock bulbs(3157).

3157: 32 l, 400c
3457: 40 l, 500c

Same wedge bulb, heat resistant socket on it, no modification, plug-and-play.

I'm gonna try to take some pics at night also, to show how it looks.

Voila..

It's chrome Altezza with 2 coats of tint. Made by latin USMC, a member here on solaraguy.

The photo makes the taillights looks dim, but it was 2PM and the brake were visible.

On the pictures with "reverse" light on, the brake are not on, just the 3 watts finalements is on, not the 28 watts filaments.

Im using my gf cheap cam, no zoom. But it's about 50% less bright than stock.

Hi guys,

About 5 or 6 SG'Ss members sent me PM about my tint tailights.

So I decided to take some pics of how they look now after I polished them with Plasti'X from Meguiar's. They look very shinny and a bit less dark then before. I'm using 3457 bulbs instead of 3157. I try 50W halogen wedge bulbs, they were bright as hell, but I was anxious to melt the tails so I went back to 3457 bulbs.

They were tint by LatinUSMC, I think he stills have few tails left.

Sorry if there is lotsssss of pics. Taken with a "cheap" Kodak digital cam.
