Here's a REALLY sh*tty picture of my car with clear tail lights. I don't really know how to use my picture editor.

OK, I'm one of the ones who voted "no." I love the look of red/clear w/no amber, but I've always thought that the look of all clears on any car, including the Maxima, looks cheap. It never looks clean to me, like the automotive equivalent of eye sockets with no eyes in them.

I've never been one to change the look of something simply so that it doesn't look like everything around it. I just go for what looks best in my opinion, and I really don't think all clears looks professional or clean. For lack of a better word, they look botched.

The white with the red looks really slick (right side). I've only seen that on one 95-96 Max . I don't really like the way all clears look either , but they do allow you versatility because you can color them how you'd like obviously depending on your states laws.

Just dont look right...

...I can't get used to the clear outers with stock inners, looks kinda half a** to me. I had them like that a while, but then they got smashed so I am back to completely stock tails.

On the other side, totally clear, I dig. I am gonna get a set if that drummer dude ever lives up to the zillion posts he made about them.

The red/clear is nice, it looks finished, but it doesn't seem worth the money to me.

I think differently every time I look but I know I like all clear the best. Half red half clear second, and outer clear inner stock last.

It sux for 95/96's cause our inner clear peice on top half is a**ed out looking. It really doesn't match the outer clears.

I have a 97 and I wouldn't mind going to the half red half clear but I'm afraid of jacking them up . I really wish more companies made aftermarket lighting and accessories for Maximas .

That's interesting looking . I think there's someone else on the forum who has a white SE with 20's and has his tail light set up exactly like that , or maybe it's his editor.

the right looks fat, the left looks cheap, like it belongs on some civic in the ames parking lot. The right side was hot.

That's what photoshop can do, and a little knowledge from the user. haha

honestly i like the 1st picture better than the second. A friend of mine had the inner lenses on hos maxima covered in black vinal and left the outers all clear. Looks kinda weird to me on a maxima. But i might go for the all clear lense look, if i had a white max. Im sticking to my clear/red on my black beauty.
