I needa repaint my car first...and i cant decide if i wanna keep the garnet color or go black or something.

Although its not THAT rare of a color, IMO from what ive seen..(confirm this anyone?), I have an edge to repaint and stay garnet cus its just a nice clean color.

Although i love the IS-F red color...the Matador Red one...gosh that thing is sexy =P

shiz do you wanna talk about handing out tickets! Myself and a bit over 300 others got blocked in by police at a local spot. They gave everyone including passengers 151.00 tickets and 3pts on their licenses for spectating a street race. I was there for over 4hrs waiting in line to get my stupid ticket.
My bad this is a taillight thread.
I don't like the 97+ tails because of the gold outlines they have.

The pseudo-supra tail light look kind of compliments the SC's modern lines, IMHO. Just popped some like these in. Tried every double pin brake light bulb in creation to match the resistance of the stock tail light single pin bulbs to turn off the tail light warning light in the dash. Finally yanked out the instrument cluster and pulled the tiny warning bulb perpetually mocking me. Crushed it with a 7 Lb sledge hammer for dramatic effect.

I think the major benefit of the 97+ tails is it really updates the car, they are very modern and clean looking.

I liked my half clear 95 tails alot after i modded them, and those are my 2nd favorite but they still made the car look older then the 97's..

the 92's are okay but i hate how they light up.. if you could get the 92-94 tails to light up like the 95 and up tails that would be a huge improvement.

Anyone have any pics of stock 92-94 tails with the smoked vinyl film on it? Just wanna see a pic of them lightly smoked so it could be pulled off without being pulled over.
