you can get the JDM ones, or tail lights covers, but thats just bout your only option. Check out the How Tos for redding out the tail lights, or you can black them out. I think thats all that you can do for a celi.

they dont exist. someone is going to flame you, then someone is going to tell you to red out your tail lights, then someone is going to tell you to smoke out your tail lights, then someone will tell you to make some custom clears, then someone will tell you to do some custom paint. Only way that you are getting Altezza tail lights is if you are doing a custom rear end conversion, or can fabricate your own, or can pay to have a company make some for you. And i am guessing all three are not applicable to you. I would suggest you make some clear tail lights. it's the closest you will get to "Euro style" and usually looks pretty good. but since you have a red car, you might be more interested in redding them out, but a lot of ppl have that. the redouts have become the norm for a lot of ppl. it looks sweet as hell. But all of the things i suggested look pretty good. check out the How-To section and you should find all of the stuff i just suggested.
And dude, the thing about altezza tail lights is that they are crappily made so they look like crap. you dont want to deface your celica with something that looks bad, do you? but thats just MO, and the opinion of about 95% of the ppl on this forum. but if you make some custom ones, we'd love to see em.

EDIT: oops, took so long to write my reply that other ppl already said what i said, but u get the idea.

i call everyone dude wink.gif nothin against you, its just one of those things i do! lol as for your comment, i do not have pics of my red out tails because i never redded them out. see how it says "soon to be:" at the top of that list? that means none of it has happened yet. i would update that, but nothing new has happened to the car since. i do have different plans though.. on a red car the redouts do look great, but i am actually having my tails painted professionally. hard to explain, but gonna look sweet! read over the How-to article on the redouts, its pretty straightforward and mostly common sense. it isnt that hard to imagine if you cant find a pic on this website. i know a lot of ppl have em. but just imagine your tail lights exactly how they are right now. then take the amber part and make it the same red as the rest of the tail light. i know it is a small change but it makes a big difference, especially on a red car. Plus, it is the easiest of the tail light mods out there, and for your application it looks the best unless you go crazy custom like i am going to do. if you cant find a pic on this site and really want to see it, go to www.extremedimensions.com get to the part of the catalog that deals with 6th gen stuff and scroll down until you get to the vader rear bumper, click on the pic and a bigger pic will be shown, that car should be blue and have red out tail lights. just make sure you dont red out the reverse light, cuz you can get in some trouble for not having a white reverse light. i know a lot of ppl on this site have em, but im too tired to look around for ya. hope this helps. check out the how to's and you will find out how to do somethin that will suit your tastes!
