    Ummmm, so people know when you're backing up.

    I'd feel pretty stupid if I painted over my reverse lights and some schmuck pulling out of a parking space behind me smashed into the back of my car because he couldn't see my reverse lights.

      Early model tails are sexy as they are IMO. If you paint them, you risk messing them up (not that they are expensive) and you're just going to have to respray them every couple of weeks to keep them looking new...

          Paint the Depos all red, then clearcoat them to protect them from UV.

          Testors red, have a body shop clear them.

          PIMP, plus no more discoballin'.

          Id rather keep those mint, and sell them, ther are pleanty of "aussies" who would pay good money for them.
          If i fuck them up then thats it. If i fuck stockers up, $30 each from the wreckers.

          And i definately want back up lights.
          no matter how good it may look.

                I had a set of DIY SHIT smoked lights. I HATED them. Stock or Startec... When you smoked the reverse lights it really hinders rearward vision when reversing.

                  I saw a set of those depos on an early model going down the road. They really didnt look that bad. I wouldnt run them on my car, but they worked on that one. I like my tails, i think they fit well.

                    I'd choose #5 by a long shot. I don't really feel the whole 'black line' thing. To each his own of course.




                    On a different note, I wonder if the depos would look any better on a black touring :D
