haha i found the pics i was talking about

https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...ighlight=riced

and yes they are ridiculous looking

 

 

what the... are those yours? did you just scrape off all the inside paint/film stuff?

dunno about clear tails for the fc tho =\

 

When it comes to tails... its definitely always best to leave them stock.

 

teh ghay

 

Got any pictures?

 

that red one up there looks pretty good .....other than the taillights

 

i think the photoshopped c4 tails look the best.

 

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! you just spent $100s of dollars and lord knows how many man hors to end up with PAINTEd STOCK S5 TAILS!!!!

if you gota mold in new tails at least do somethinf that looks
different.

and i have never realy understood the fascination with supra tails either. sure its argualby the best japanese car built, but that doest atomaticaly mean its got the best tail lights people.

when people mold in lights from "better" cars that look like crap that they are unhappy with their car but dont have the $$$ so they just figure "well if i cant have a supra at leat i can have supra tails!!!"

im not saying there arent some good options out there to make a unique look, but you can look outside of other sports cars for them.

 

Swapping tail lights = very 1996 ricer. stick with S5 lights, don't ruin the car.

 

God, why do people so this?? Every car I've seen so far with different taillights looks like CRAP.
The one in the pic above wouldn't look so bad if the lights were a little bigger, and u a bit higher... but then, lo and behold, you would have STOCK lights!!
Stick with stock.

 

I like the S2000 lights. They look real smooth....on an S2000. Dont know how they would look on an FC tho.

 

Like ***.

 

use the fd or miata lights definatley keep them mazda brand,no cheap spanish adaptations....please

 

I think Skyline lights would look good....

 

Skyline lights are what I keep thinking too ... most other lights are too small to fill that area right.

 

Hmm, Miata lights might be ok ...

 

what about rx-8 lights?

 

That would be cool, but I think they might look too small. I think they'd be more at home on a FD.

IMHO R32 lights would look great pained purple, R32s On ebay But R34s would look good too R34s on ebay. The R33s look too mugh like Accord Altezzas to me.

 

I vote for miata lights. They are very similar to S5 tails but a little sleeker. Bet they'd look good and fairly close to stock.

 

When someone said replace the tails, I immediately thought of R34 Skyline tails.
Bigs and smalls are where it's at.

But while I was thinking about it it... What's to stop someone from extending the lines of the vehicle up and back, in a fin, and using 59 Cadillac Eldorado tails? Would be very retromodern looking, if done right.
That might make the car have too much of a 50s/60s look to it, though. Could be beautiful....

 

definitely always best to leave them stock? I disagree, some cars dont have the best stock lights, and aftermarket ones are good (at times)... but when it comes to the FC, yah i'd say stock rocks, specially s5

skyline or miata lights might be OK, but i'd have to see it first to be sure.. between the two i'd say skyline is the best choice

 

why... just... why?

 

I think what makes that car so heinous is the spoiler... I don't think it would look half as bad if it wasn't so ballooned in the back.

 

Yea Tony, I was thinking R34 lights ... seems to obvious though. Now I need to find some measurements for them.
