Ebay Link
Check it out, in the pics on the auction, one of them has some altezzas that I haven't seen before.
Or, they actually look like OEM tailights that have been cleared. Just I'd share with you guys.....

Rep Power: 0 im pretty sure those arent alteeza's, those are just spray painted inside silver. i've seen many people do that...i think D, did that with his original taillights too.

Rep Power: 0 i've seen those. they don't look so great when they light up though. they're like the interior dome lights where the color is blurred and not so bright. if you're going for a clean look, just have some custom ones made that are crystal clear.

Rep Power: 0 it must be just me because those dont look like altezzas or anything like altezzas, but you know what they do look like to me is broken. it just looks like the red lense fell off because every corner of that car is crumpled. that just looks like the casing with the bulbs and no red lenses. but maybe im wierd

Rep Power: 0 i think everyone agrees that the lense popped off
....but you know what i would like
my stock tails carbon fiber
that's all i really want, the black housing.
anybody know if this is possible.
i know you would have to get a clear lense to put over it
but that's about it

Rep Power: 278 I work in a body shop and that car is very repairable. The rear quarters are easily replaced, along with the trunk lid and rear cover. Front needs cover and fenders, headlight, windshield. It will need to be put on the frame machine to check the uni-body. Replace the airbags, repair front suspension, add a little paint. Its really not as bad as it looks! We did a Ford Taurus that was worse (rolled over and side swiped a tree. The car was bent into a V!) and it was only an $8000 job! From what I can see in the pictures, there is just under $4000 in parts that need to be replaced. If you can do most of the work yourself, it would be a pretty good deal (depending on the price of the wreck).

Rep Power: 0 Civic cowboy, the car is very fixable!! But the insurance company prolly total the car out because the cost of repair was up to 75% of original cost of the vehicle!!! It is a total! And the insurance co. already reported it to the D>O>T! If you read it closer you will notice that it says "salvage title" That means that it is only good for a parts car! But hey if your shop likes to rebuild totals and be responsible for the occupants of the car ,because the car is stucturally unsound then by almeans yes the car is a fixer! But the reason why its on ebay is because they know that some sucker is going to see that and say, wow, it can be brand new again! If i just pull the sway out of the front and pull mash from rear, replace qtr panels, 'b' pillar,all abs sensor,clocksprings and air bags! Yes it can be fixed, but it would be a waste of money! pimpdakota

Rep Power: 0 Ok ok when you rebuild it you gonna sell it or what. My friend had an experience buying a 2nd hand car that he didn't know it has an salvage title on it. Well he have a hard time registered it to the DMV. And the book value of the car is lower than he pay for. He got rip off!!!
