My doomed tail light project

Well guys i had an idea and I put it to work and it didn't turn out as I had imagined. After tons of bondo, sanding, and spraypaint, my disasterpiece is finally finished! I only did one side in case this were to happen when I got finished. Oh well, back to square one. Anyone have any carbon fiber tails they wanna sell me?

I just don't think they flow with the lines of the car. They almost look overdone IMO. I dunno.

I think they look halfway decent. I don't think they look like a diasterpiece at all......Looks a lot better than some other things I have seen before. Both custom and aftermarket. So well done. Best of luck selling these if you decide to go through and make them..

It aint my taste, but I think you did a really good job. The white on white flows better than if you would get CF ones.

That's actually kinda cool.
You should've done that to the headlights....ppl (including myself) would go nuts over something like that.
