well see i've actually been considering getting that conversion for the future. the reason why well i hate the stock pop-up look. so i modified the pop-ups and it looks better. but i still think it could be better. i've seen the sleek light conversions they have for the FC, and frankly i don't like any of them! when they have a sleek light kit that looks as good on an fc as the RE Amemiya one looks on the FD then we'll see. but in the meantime that makes me think i should convert to another car's headlights, and i like the S15s (not trying to be like everyone else but i like the look of them). but what would you suggest i convert my headlights to with this in mind?

and back to the main topic of this thread, what do you guys think about S5 tails with only the yellow part clear? S5 all clear tails gives me a bad picture but with the yellow part cleared that doesnt sound so bad does it? can someone photoshop this?

Those black tails looked funky.... Whatever those white dots were surrounding the border looked very tacky. If those weren't there.... I'd still be ify. I'd have to see them in person with good light shining on the tails so I could see what exactly it looks like. Kinda shadowed in the pic. Interesting though. now since NO ONE else has done that, that makes that HOT right? Being that rice is trying to be something you're not, or incorperating someone else's vehicle parts into your own car of a different making... Right? Well, hot I guess if you like the look. If you don't, it just looks like crap I guess. But not rice!

S15 headlights? I agree, becoming quite the comodity. Try doing a benz conversion. That would be sweet. At least, I think so.. Add the wiper blades, and you're ROCKIN'! that's just a joke...

Changing tha amber part to clear on the S5 Tail lamps would be nice! I have looked for this conversion for a while & no one is willing to do it. Not even clearconers

You'll want to post that in the For sale/wanted section instead of the 2nd gen technical section here.
