Opinions about Taillights

Hey I need your help!

I have an 02 black sedan and have been thinking about getting new taillights, the altezzas are out.

Although I would love to get the Red/Clear ones like Telly has, I don't have that kind of money.

Option 1: Stock 02

Option 2: Used Stock 03-04

Option 3: New Red TYC Taillights

Any other suggestions are welcome.

Me neither. The 01-02 tails are much cleaner. Keep what you have, unless you can save up for red/clear tails. Don't get 03 tails or tezzas.

Well, I have come to a conclusion, and this is it:

I am going to put the stock taililghts back on, and de- badge it, and put black trunk and hood trim on it.

I don't know who's car this is, but this is how mine's going to look, except for the rims, and I have the HKS- Hi Power Exhaust.

You got the right idea. May want to just keep the H on, since you'll need to get the two holes patched if you remove it.

leave it as is, black the out, or use black vinyl and design a sticker overlay for the lights.
