Question clear tail lights???!!

Now...i dont noe if this is completely true or not but on some other pro forum there was a dude saying he was getting clear tail lights (altezza) made.

I wish i could tell you what forum it was but i was in school and i snuck on the pooter . All i remember is it was on an "ezboards" first gen forum.
It was a new post so it should be easy to find.

Just wonderin if anybody knew who posted it or if anyone knew if this was actually happenin'....

Yeah Alteza' would not look right on the first gen .. unless they were all Red , then you would not have to change the center garnish

The 92-94 tails look good ...why would you wanna rice it up by putting altezzas in ....the altezza phaze will be gone in a year or two anyways....if you want it to look nice....check out the familia center piece for the trunk lid....and relocate your plate....that looks sweet ***.....and looks different too.....it's an eyecatcher...

does that center garnish give you a shaved look? i'm just curious, and where abouts can you find the center garnish. i thought for the longest time dude, and the basic problem with the rear end of the car is clearing it out wouldn't look all that great, i can just tell by looking at my old broken rear lens i replaced, the damn thing would look rediculous cleared out, and unless some company had some sets to **** with, and had a mass ordering of these things, then and only then would they consider altezzas for older cars such as ours, so there isn't much you can do. i got clear corners through the group buy for my car, that looked slamming, but there ain't much you can do for the back end. if you got someone to make them for you, they wouldn't look right at all.
peace

I hate altezzas anyway, but they'd look ESPECIALLY hideous on a 1G pro...

It would remind me of the 88 civic hatch altezzas with the ugly center garnish. God its bad just thinking about it. Get the familia garnish and convert it. mine looks good but theres no place for the plate. A cop pulled me over tuesday and was like where do u put your plate? lol

IMO, the 90-91 tailights look the best. Altezzas would definately be very fugly. I hope nobody starts mass production on those because if I ever see a 1st gen Pro with altezzas, I'm crashing my car in the first tree I see.
