Euro spec Tails, 56k....Migga what? Options

[devilsden97]

So. this was a bit of a 6gc.net underground move. Before photos are posted, I like to thank Batman722, and Malpaso for helping me obtain these tail lights. With out either of them, I probally wouldnt have gotten them.

Ok...on with the show.





you might be asking yourself, "those look like my USDM tails..." I'm here to tell u they are not. Sadly I forgot to take a photo of the car with 1 USDM tail in, and 1 Euro spec tail in. You'll just have to take my word that there is a stuble difference.

Ok, so I had the car, and the camera out...so I went on a mini/quick photo shoot.



^bugs and rock chips....ew. oh well.

What's the difference with USDM tails?

What's the difference with USDM tails?

I figured someone would want to know.

USDM:

The corner has a red square and an extra bulb.

Euro Spec Tails:

No red square, and it won't light up.

IMO its a cleaner tail then the USDM, and I didn't want the JDM tails because everyone and there brother here has them.

[Kadett]

Its indeed alot cleaner then the USDM.

But your logic about the JDM tails confuses me. I dont add/buy stuff for the celica to be unique, I do it because I like it not because it makes me stand out of the crowd. I'm the one that drives my car everyday not some other 6GC member If that was the case I would have swapped in a 4A-FE with 13 " steel rims and so on

true.

IMO tho, originality is cooler/better then being run of the mill/unoriginal and getting the same items as everyone else. Yes the JDM tails are "nice," but I personally like the idea of the Euro Spec tails, because there slightly different, and no one really knows except me.

I guess its just a matter of opinion and the way you look at it, Thanks for the input Kadett.

(btw id love to see your car rocking steelies and a 4a..lol)

thouse look good migga. Not very often do you see some one going for a euro look. I was thinking of gettin a set of thouse b4, but i liked the jdm ones better. but they look good man

[Remy]

I have them on my car too they're jdm/euro tails. They give it a nice clean look.

[CelicaST_CALI]

how much did u pay for them?

[Remy]

I bought my pair when I first bought my car I paid 120 shipped though I hear you can get them cheaper now.

[Culpable04]

talis !

[CelicaST_CALI]

SO ur saying u paid 120$ to remove a light from ur taillights...wow someone has to much $.....

[devilsden97]

i paid $120 shipped to me from the Czech Republic.

I knew the money was going to another celica owner, so I dont/didnt mind.

[CelicaST_CALI]

ok w/e its ur $,it just seems kinda a waste,btw anyone got any links about curren tails i cant find any...

[malpaso]

First some repost about how Euro tails works





---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

now about price (I have no problem to share with that . $120 minus paypal fee, minus exchange rate, minus shipping => $62 for pair

First I asked Toyota how much are new and (someone would be surprised) price for new pair is the same like JDM ones is! Then I called local junk yard where for sure they have some for sale and they told me: "$100 for pair"

so... IMHO about $60 is fair price for me and if anyone would like to have another set just add my costs to junk yard price and let me know

[Remy]

SO ur saying u paid 120$ to remove a light from ur taillights...wow someone has to much $.....

I paid 120 *shipped* shipping was half that.

[tomazws]

Honestly I couldn't spot the differences until you showed it

[CelicaST_CALI]

lol yea,i would save for jdms.Any links for curren tails???
