idea approval?

well, i was an idiot when i first got the car, i immediatly brought altezzas (my first mod) but anyway, now i have them, and it doesn't blend well with the rest of my car, i can't sell it anywhere for a decent price (everyone around alreeady brought them, in fact the local honda sells the civic WITH tyc projectors) so i was thinking tinting the lense like genozide(sp?) here is a little photochop...



tell me what you think, i am really thinking of doing it!

not bad, but I would show more light, don't cover up so much cause the cops might harass u. They'll find any reason to pull you over.

EEK!! Take out the alteezas and repaint the inner-housing in 'black' if thats your color scheme.

Creativity is caused by a spark. Got spark?

more photoshoppin'...


i'd say this will look the coolest to most people... maybe a bit too similar to the carbon fiber altezzas, but at least you could make these match the color of the car almost perfectly.

[hr]


personally i think these would look sweet. just put a few light coats of red (or even tint it darker a bit) to the outside lens -- maybe even darken the individual lenses on the inside (like the reverse lights in the pic)... subtle, but different.

just don't paint 'em blue [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] lol

in my opinion, just black out the chrome part leaving the red circular lense and reverse lense alone, or all together just take them off and cut ur losses by trading with somebody for something that u might be more interested in having, maybe even just giving them away to hella cheap to someone who wants them. either way, those lights are kinda ugly and played out. i say go back to STOCK or APC altezzas....or just wait for another company to make another version.

That would be sweet to get them painted, getting past some of the police could be an issue. But I like em.
