97-2000 LED Tails Fabricated "A" Right Way
Like I said in the beginning, these lights aren't for everybody due to their very high prices.

Anyways back on topic, the lights turned out pretty clean. I do like them better with the smoked finish. They kinda remind me of the old school JDM tails that were all clear.

I told everyone else not to fall in love with them because they couldn't afford them...... and that they were done right. That's the price of perfection. Others are pissing and moaning about the price of them, which is exactly why I told them that cause it was obvious what was coming. I'm pretty sure I don't have to whip out a pie chart and explain this.
They are a nice clean look and done right, but they are the VIP of the JDM in C-A-S-H.

Yeah I don't think so.

I agree with everything you wrote both then and now...

Still with the too expensive comments? Okay, I'm gonna be at the borderline of being rude while criticizing, so please, excuse me. If you think it's too expensive why get a Lexus? Lexus is expensive? Dont give me that 'dude its a 20 year old car and sells for $2k on craigslist or even less', newsflash dude, more likely it is the reason why your SC looks like crap compared to people who really adore and spend blood sweat and tears to their beloved SC's. If you can't afford it, good news bro, you're not their target market. I really expect more from Club Lexus forum members than 'dude that's expensive'. Get a Hyundai bro, if you want the ballin' while in a major budget look since they try to compare themselves to Lexus. Lol
Edit: it looks really top notch and almost OEM. Looking forward to seeing it on the car. Good luck with the build. Don't forget to update us on the SC430 front seats too, Ryan.

"get a hyundai bro"
I think the lights look awesome personally, but let's not pretend like there's not a ton of arrogance being thrown around here.

I say it is up to the owner to decide what and how he spends their own money. Sounds like to me a bunch of haters who cant afford the mod, or they too would prolly do it as well. I cant stand when people knock others for their own mods and criticize them for the cost. As long as the owner likes it, should you have the right to tell someone how to mod their car? Or vise versa?
Thats what I thought, no one should tell others what and how they should spend thier own money on their own car. Ryan, the tails looks amazing, bottom line. I like and if I could afford them, I would. For now, I will rock the VHT painted tails from my 1992 for now.

The lights look amazing! The only thing dont like about it is the complete bottom portion of the tail lights being the signal, but thats just me. If I were able to afford it i would rock the crap out of them. Your car and build has always been quality and it shows!

Are clear corners DOT compliant?
I ask because we had a member on the RX7 club selling modified LED tails that look very good
Unfortunately it did not turn out well for him. An unhappy customer (who isa good freind of mine) made things quite difficult for that person. I cant recall the exact details but in the end after a letter from the NHTSA, the lights were not made anymore.
It wasn't a bad price for a $420 upgrade. The turn around time was extremely long however.

And i dont see why those arent dot compliant as the reflectors are on the bumper and 1/4 panels. .

And someone wanted to tell me that the old timers who dump tons of money into their cars aren't arrogant.
"your sc looks like crap"
"you can't afford it"
"get a hyundai bro"

in reply to the rx7 lights posted by moosejaw, as the rear and side reflectors are on the bumper and 1/4 panel making it dot compliant, and he stated the fabricator made good lights but turn around time was long and his friend made it difficult for him because he was an unhappy customer.
no disrespect to you moosejaw, but a story like that would be nice to know a little more in depth or it just seems like your friend is a shady ******* trying to get one over on somebody offering a service that he normally does for a hobby.
