Red and Clear Tail Lamp Set
Red and Clear Tail Lamp Set or the All Clear Tail Lamp Set? Which looks better on a pearl white sc300?
Has anyone seen or have pics of either one on an sc? At $800+, i dont know if its worth it.
wanted to buy classified removed by administration.
md
What have i done to my car?
eibach springs 1"
Tokico struts
Kazera KZ-A 245/8.5/18-265/9.5/18
In the process:
VIS kit
I dont know if i should get these:
Clear side makers
Red and Clear Tail Lamp set
Want:
Basic Turbo Kit from nonturbo.com
(I'm not sure if all that the kit provide is good enough to drive around with the acclaimed 300rwhp?)
Give me some suggestions anyone. Would be appreciated.

it's not worth it, you're better off getting a set of 95/96 taillights and doing it yourself....for $800, you can do lots more or better yet start saving for that turbo kit.......
my car is a 92, here are pics of my DIY tails, may not look as good as the clearcorners.com set or the takakaira.jp.co set, but it's close enough for my liking:
and as for the clear sidemarkers, yes, go for it, i plan on getting myself a set
hope this helps you

Sweet sc3
Your car rocks! Very nice and clean. I wish when i'm done with my white sc3 is will look like yours. What kit do u have on your car? JIC right? I love your rims too man. I listened to my friend and gotten me the kazera. I dont really like it, but that will do. I didnt want to spend more then 1600 on 18s. I was about to buy the 245/8/19 ADR X-Factor even though it was $1850. They didnt have anything greater then 8 so i decide not to.
I really want the turbo kit. I just hope that it costs under $2500 for all the parts. The labor will be cheap for me cause i know this mechanic guy. He'll probably do it for me at $200 for the labor. I think the shop will dyno it for about $150 right? And then i have to upgrade my ECU too...DaMn!!! MO money.

DIY cleared lights
Before you go and throw $800 ( ) at some cleared lights, check out what you can do yourself for less than $10 
Here's a pic of my DIY cleared tails. I used some plastic diffuser from Home Depot and had enough left over to do another two sets plus the side markers
Here's the view from the rear:

Yeah, listen to these guys it is best to save your $800 and do the mods yourself. Buy the 95-96 and custom them red/white. Use your $800 towards other engine upgrade or suspension. Here's a pic of mine:
A pic when I was done: smoked red/clear

Dinh, your SC is like mine...in the '92-'94 category...I have never seen these lights cleared before, most people get the '95's and clear those because of the color set-up (red on TOP)..since our red section is on the bottom (and we have that small white section in the middle, like a side-marker) I'm not sure how that works law-wise (if you clear that section I mean) or looks-wise. Probably best to get the 95's to be safe. Or you can be one of the first to do it

i would've tried to clear the top of the 92-94 lights, but i read and confirmed that it is impossible because the lense itself is amber, so you can't clear it, kinda sucks
deng wmulli and SC400_408, your guys' came out more clear than mine, mine still have that pinkinsh hint to it
maybe cuz i didn't put any plastic diffuser in there...oh well
