Yo,


Series 5 tailights (smoked 4 circles) are the greatest tailight ever produced by mankind. Get those. *grin*

Sorry man 99% of stuff you see in a magazine( carbon fiber hoods, euro lights, ect) are made for new compact cars. I dont mind at all though, because it keeps rice off of RX-7s. Euro lights aint got nothing on S5 lights.

At my shop I stock Vans red lense spray. All though ideal to the ser 4 tails are the ser 5's, but they are typically very expensive(225$+). I think just spraying the orange away along with all the stock red(so they match) would look really good, along with painting the housings to match the body. If I had photoshop Id show you!

You can find this product at www.spwusa.com. Have fun, and if you do a Intagra taillight conversion, dont tell anyone on this forum cuz youll get more **** than a homophobe in a gay bar!

don't get clear taillights please, you'll get nothing but grief from all of us here, and most drivers on the street.

Get clear lights, if that's what you want. But just make sure your car is in great shape and can hang. That's what's important.
