Rotor Tail Lights?

I am buying this car and was wondering who makes these rotor tail lights since one has a chip. I have seached here and google and turned up nothing so far. Just wondering, Thanks

they're probably a custom job. Just make a stencil and spray paint, the same way you'd do 99spec.

Thats pretty awsome, but I have never seen that around anywhere, so maybe its a custom job like SLOASFK said.

I've missed a lot of games this season, and I've been playing Fallout a whole lot...

besides, the vault dweller looks so cocky in this pic, it's awesome.

What is chipped?

Those taillights are custom, using the same method people use to simulate 99 spec taillights. Someone took them apart, and used a stencil and spraypaint to paint all but the "rotor" black, then put them together. If the paint is chipped inside, you could probably get some sort of paint remover and take it all off (not sure if that would scar the plastic though), or just get a used set of regular tail lights.

Actually, thinking about it...you could just separate these lights and remove the inserts then put these inserts into whatever tail light housings you buy to replace this one. That'd be the easiest way to go, if you want to keep the rotor tail lights.
