Has anyone seen these tails on a maxima?

Just curious if anyone has seen these black alteeza's on a max. Anyone have a pic...not a fan of alteeza's at all....but these seem like they might work on a
black max.

Interesting. Doesn't look half bad. I'm still not much of an altezza fan though.

Slowly step away from the rice lights with your hands in the air.

not a big fan of alteza's but by far, i think those are the best looking ones, but dont get it, just go with the clears. Makes the car look more rich instead of a toy.

I like the altezza's myself, but I'd just go with normal ones and do the skyline tail mod like I did, looks pretty sweet IMO.

What I'm thinking though, I wonder if I could get away with painting the entire inner tail body color? It looks pretty sweet in my mind, and if I get around to it, I might photoshop it.

so in the 96's, the orange part of the OEM tails is all one part, right? it can't seperated easily like the 97-99? so it has to be cooked, then painted, right?

never mind, just found sticky

wasnt there a thread JUST like this a week or so ago, asking the EXACT SAME question about the EXACT SAME taillight? ENOUGH altezza threads, we already know that altezzas are the red-headed step child, no one on org likes them, except me an chickan, so plz refrain from the altezza threads.

I agree with a previous post. Us 95-96ers have to have SUMTHING to get us going with the tail lights, so really our only option is altezzas, I had a set...and then the whole website started making fun of them soooo now im back to stock, but my GF is pissed and wants them back on ASAP. Sooooo looks like they will be going back on.

Is she pissed about what tail lights you have on your car? Is she demanding the altezzas go back on? Wow.....you sir, are whipped.

I picked up the carbon fiber set because I think that black will fade. Tails do not make a car rice, wings do. If they want weight in the rear just put the battery back there. The red clears or red paint is making the car look dated. Rice is only about looks and is completely non-functional.

If you liked them rather than the stock then put them back on, ive been waiting for the clearz for us as well but the amber just stuck out too much so I settled. Dont bow to pressure from the stockies, what one likes another dislikes, make it your own.

Same here I am sick and tired of those old euros that are red and silver. They do make them look outdated. Also the wings are dumb.
