I'd be very interested in Carbon fiber tails if they made them. I don't mind my stock lights, but I'd like to have something a little more stylish in the back.

Having clear style tail lights and the whole 'rice' scene is totally different.
A lot of new cars come with these lights now and don't forget it was actually Toyota who first made the Altezza, NOT Honda . Rice is about putting Type R stickers on an '89 Civic and everything else they do with them. -------------------- Facelift bumper-foglights-clear indicators, clear side repeaters, 16in O.Z alloys, stainless steel grill.

yea dude, rice is a mentality, not a set of tail lights. Rice is putting crappy stuff on your car. and the truth is most aftermarket taillights are crappily made. Rice is saying your car is something that it isnt (Type-R stickers). Rice is thinking your piece of crap, 100hp car is as fast as a ferrari. Rice is misrepresenting your car (interfoolers, BOV sound devices). As long as its clean and not misrepresenting i say it isn't rice. I have seen some civics that look really good and have 'gasp' altezzas, but it is extremely rare. the lights usually dont fit/ are shoddily made, but some people work that extra bit to make it look clean, and if theyve done that and the lights work with the car... more power to em. If this guy can make altezza lights for his celi, or get them custom made and really wants them and wants it to look good, i'm sure he will, but you can bet that how it looks is gonna depend on his amount of determination. you all talk about how being original and different is what makes the car look awesome. and then what do i see? everyone who has the cash gets JDM tails and JDM projectors and a Veilside-ish bodykit. i know that is fairly close to all we have. I doubt he will, but if this guy DOES get some custom altezza lights, either custom made w/ his existing tails or gets some molded in. its HIS car, let him do what he wants and im sure itll end up looking clean as hell or else he just wont show us.
Yea, fake CF does look like crap on my face This post has been edited by Pvc99gT: Jun 17, 2003 - 9:28 PM |

I completely agree w/ Pvc99gt, I would guarantee that if they sold shoddily made Altezzas for our Celica's, they'd be selling like friggin hotcakes. All of you deny the fact, but I've heard MANY people on this website, more originally than now, that have tried to "petition" a company into manufacturing them. Now on the positive side, the lack of aftermarket products has also made many of us (including myself) more innovative and creative with our cars and we've done some pretty tight custom work that's all out original. In closing, don't hate Honda's because there are companies that make **** for their cars...hate the unoriginal bastards that drive them and put Type R stickers, loose body kits, and those GOD FORSAKEN windshield wiper fluid dispenser LED thingy's....DAMN I HATE THOSE.

i think it was in another post that some ppl tried to get signatures or something to get a company to make them. and i think the response was that the company will look into it.
IMO when the company does their research they look into sites like this for what the most would say about altezzas or what not. And when they see that most wont support the idea of them then i think that they wont make them. Dont flame mo that. thats what i would do if i was a company who would me making such things. -------------------- Chris Malaqui

How hard would it be to custom fit supra tails into the celica? Just out of curiousity, i'm looking a for a new job once i get the engine in. I dont like my current tails, but i dont like the jdm versions either. Would it take working with fiberglass or something? Anyone have any ideea? Maybe this has been covered before, but i sure as hell havent read anything about it, i guess i'll try a search for it momentarily... Anyway.... -------------------- AIM : FAQdaWorld
