APC Next Generation Tails - Installed

I would give these a 7.5 out of 10. I think the color of the car has a lot to do with these looking good more than the other style of tails that are out. That rectangular cut out for the backup light and turn signal could have been thought better. The worksmanship is a lot better that the others. Still half crappy though. I would give both sets of tails I have now for the APC carbon fiber ones minus the red reflector on them.

Nice, I really like how they look! Though for your car it gives it a somewhat different look because you don't have your badges on it. Nice job

Now those altezzas I will get. They look a lot better than the chrome crap.

BTW, I would rather get the real ones from corksport. I don't fully trust APCs materials.

If APC does come out with carbon fiber ones, then I will get those over the corksport pair.

I like that type of 'altezza' light. Do you have any pics that are farther away?

I know the protege5 have circle for the turn and reverse but the type of plastic used looks like the protege5. I like them too.

If anybody wants to swap the carbon fiber tails for these I'm game. Am I the only one who thinks these aren't that great? They haven't fogged up a bit. I'll give APC that. I just like the carbon fiber better on a silver protege.
