Check out these tail lights for the FD3S!!!!!
Came across these:
http://www.finalkonnexion.co.jp/X8_twintail.htm http://www.finalkonnexion.co.jp/FD3S_LEDtwintail.jpg and these http://www.finalkonnexion.co.jp/combinationlamp.htm Any comments? I think they are trying to copy the RX8's design. I still like the 99 spec though. |
nasty...

isnt there an interior exterior section on this forum???
|
I saw them in a Drift Tengoku magazine...not everything from Japan is good. :D
|
i kinda liked the X8 twin tail ones with the black housing... but definitely not as much as the 96+ spec ones :D
why is it that everything is referred to as 'spec? that style of light was on all RX-7s from 1996 on, wasn't it? |
Can you say "RICE".....that is nasty, why degrade your car with those things...
|
stay with stock taillight.
|
The rest suck, but if this one didn't have the reflective outer section, it wouldn't look too bad. Three would have been better, but I think you could save this one by opening it up and blacking out the reflective area.

https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...chmentid=68346 I would like to see one just like that except with a smaller third circle light for the blinker. |
Not bad
|
if you blacked it out where would be indicator be?
|
OMG, somebody made Altezzas for the FD! I think the world is coming to an end, at least this makes me hope it is.

I said they were actually "96+ lights", and weren't a "conversion" because masking off and spray painting circles doesn't make them anything else (conversion to what?), and I was called a "troll" and whatnot. :rolleyes:
BTW, those lights are hideous and cheapen the FD even more than it already has been. |

You are right that the round Efini tail lights were available from '96-on. I had one of the first legitimate pairs in the States back in mid-'97 when the price was still too rich for most people's blood, and there weren't people baking tail lights apart in their ovens to spray paint them. :p: |
i can get those from japan its just i have never mentioned it becaise they look :(

However, the "chromey" lights look like shit and anyone who buys them should have misshapen offspring with extra digits or some sort of justifiable curse along those lines... :D |
[QUOTE=jimlab]People refer to them as '99-spec because A) some people just don't know any better, B) '99 is newer than '96, and therefore "better" in some people's eyes, C) "spec" probably sounds cool to some people, sort of like calling everything "JDM" these days, and D) adding some '99-spec parts probably makes them feel they have free license to tell people that their car is '99-spec too. :)
I guess maybe its because people started marketing the tail light replacements as "99 spec" even though they were first launched back in 1996. Either way be it 1996 or 1999 they are basically the same. Guess folks just got used to calling them ''99 spec". I just tell my friends I got the round lights! |

However, I do agree the lights linked by the original poster are nothing short of hidious. :rolleyes: |

I think it might be possible to determine if the JDM 99 spec tail lights are different. I was talking to one of the other forum members about his car, and he's noticed that the stock lights on almost all the FDs he's seen have a light bluish grayish fade at the top of the tail light where seam line shows up for the plastic. Anyhow, I compared his lights to mine (we both have 93 FD's) and his doesn't have the grayish bluish fade on the top and mine was really visible, I guess he has the 'true' jdm lights.
But other wise, those lights would look great in a gay porn movie. Stick with the stock or the smoked circle lights man. |
