was wondering someone can make these tail lights instead of just the circular JDM lights.

It just looks like that cause its a cartoon. Its just the way the guy drew the cartoon when he was trying to copy the square lights. I dont think u can make them look exactly like that. Maybe you can get it close but i dont think it would look good.

those are actual lights I have seen them when I went to Korea, its a matter of how you paint the filter on the lights. Just like the circles you can cut out different shapes and paint it differently. Maybe I'll just do it myself...

I think they'd look good. Too many people have the JDM taillights. SWAT81 if you decide to do it yourself, show me some pictures please!

if u do that there will be a gap between the turning lights and brake lights

You sure about that? Just looks like distorted drawings to me.

Yeah those tails just look stock. They're just emphasized a bit because of the cartoon.

I recently just switched to stock tails haha, cuz everyone seems to have jdm these days.

I'm glad you got a kick out of it

I suppose you could do a mockup with electrical tape instead of painting it.

I think it looks good.

Can't say whether I like it more than the JDM circles or not.

i can make those for you.. LMK... btw,what about the turn lights???

eastondle

yeah i can make it look like that, just gotta make a template. and that avatar is not an anime character...

it requires some modification of the turn signal part (yellow), probably gotta cut part of the break light part then cut the same sized signal light part and glue it in. There is no paint job required, just a cut and glue job internally

You'd need to do two things:
1. Change the plastic so it makes the red section & the yellow section in shape you want. The toughest part would be changing from red to yellow, trying to paint it would end up with mismatched colors. It looks like you've got this figured out.

2. Cut apart your stock taillights and basically fabricate new reflectors in order for it to light up in that pattern. I'd guess it would take an inexperienced fabricator about a full day's work to make the first set, maybe two if you're paticularly meticulous about it. If you do this wrong, you'll have sloppy-looking shapes and/or possible overlap of the red/yellow light sources. If you can pull off that 'cut & glue plastic' idea of yours, this should be a somewhat similar process.


Personally, I'd replace the entire setup with an array of LED's that light up in the correct color pattern, it would be one job instead of two. This is assuming you can do the electronics work with the LEDs, and the fabrication of a bracket to integrate them into the factory taillight.

Is it me or does those taillights make the car look sad.

Chaosx1

Haha, now that I look at it again, it does look kind of sad.
