What do you guys think of Black clear tails?

I had this done on my 3rd gen and it looked tight. What do you guys think for a 4th gen?
1 Night shades on brake light


Here are some other variations: I think the first is hot though.
2 Night shades and dtm turn signals
3 DTM style -turn signals
4 Full DTM style

I like them all. I think you'de have to do something with the headlights too if you wanted it to look "complete".

turbomaxima, I think shades look great on light colored cars, especially white, and welcome to the board

I was thinking about doing the ae headlights, but then I started to dislike it, in a way it gives the max an accord-ish look.
It only looks good if its all black with projectors, and all black cornering lamps.

I think I like the way it looks with all clear front, and only white turns in the back.

This way it eliminates any color from the outside.

the third one was nice but if you painted the spoiler the same color it would have been better i think.

I think the traditional DTM style looks better than all the above, ditto with regular red/clears.

I like the way number 1 looks, but I also like the way regular red and clears look to.

1 is hot. Those with 5% and Smoked Cefiros.

PS: Can you re-do 1 with a White LED Bar in the Spoiler? Just curious on how that would look.

I would do the first one but I'm scared I'd be getting menus from the cops. I plan on doing the regular DTM mod this summer.

For dark-colored Maximas #1 is def the best scheme. For lighter-colored Maximas, I'd say #3.
