I would not reconmend the altezza for the SC.. now that all the civic and tegs are doing this mod, it's played out..Very played out.. Red the whole thing out or something but altezza are played out. This is IMO/

As far as i know, there are no companies that produce tail lights for the SC. Anything done to the tailights has to be custom.

Personally, I'm looking to buy a cheap 95-96 tail light (even if broken) that I can practice on before I take mine apart. If you check out the SC gallery there is a pretty sweet looking dark purple SC with the bottom silver'd out.

The bottom of the lights that are silver on that SC.....all that it has is silver vinyl sticker stuff over the outside of it. Just buy a roll of vinyl in whatever color and stick it over If you want the same thing...

I'm working with a local shop right now that fabricates plastic things. I've given them a SC light, and they're trying to make me a clear one, TOTALLY clear, with just the diamond-shaped reflective stuff on the inside. Then you just gotta put the colored bulbs in it.

They don't hafta make the entire light, just the outside lens to replace the lens that's on there.

I didn't really wanna broadcast this out to everyone yet, until I get word from them IF they'll even be able to do it AND make it look good.

Please do keep us updated on the status of the lens creation.
Did they give you an estimate date or price?
I need new taillights but am holding off on buying them in hopes of finding clear ones.
