CL Alteza Tail Lights?

I know, I love the stock tail lights too, but is any of you interested on Alteza tail lights for our cars? Let me know what you all think, at least to put them on for car shows. I would really love to know what you all think....Thanx for your support. You guys are the best.

Well, most companies, ok, all companies are in business for one thing, and that of course is money. Especially aftermarket companies who derive there business from high sales of certain autos. Let's be honest, Acura Cl's, especially first gen. were not high sellers. So to have a variety of aftermarket mods produced especially for our cars is very rare. Altezza's would be interesting though, a little to rice for me, but depending on the application, why not? I just recently sold my altezza lights on ebay for my 97 civic. I had them on for about a week and decided that they looked too rice. Kinda like those blackout headlight covers, yuck, but i also fell victim to that as well. I just learned over time that sometimes stock is better than mock.

I've only seen the alteeza (sp.) mounted on a CL one time. My initial impression was "YUCK". I really didn't care for them at all. But with most things, if they were on my car, I'd probably get used to them. Therefore, I'm not putting them on my car.

To each his own. I'd say, if they were available i'd get em just to see if i liked em. Nobody else would have them, so you'd really stand out you know?
Clears would be good too but the red of the bulbs usually isn't strong enough to make for a safe car.

I just decided to go with the red look of the rear end on my car and plan to get a red badge, to go with the red tails and red licence lights.

peace

go to www.f-max.com
do a search for the DRAG turbo kit but i think they only make the generation 2
you can also find used kits on ebay.com thepartstrader.com etc.
