Checking Redlinemax and saw gen 3 Altezzas??

These look like modified Euro altezzas fitted with LEDs to look like the Gen 2 altezzas. It looks like it also has a small light down on the outside of each to match the small light that us 97-99 taillight owners have. Just wondering if anyone has these yet and what opinions are of them by owners or people who have seen them in person? I know some people don't like altezzas period but I've been eyeing the Gen 2s for quite some time and these look pretty good too.

Ok, sorry about the link. Not sure if the other one is the same as this. These lights are definately labeled Gen 3.

Threre's a picture of them on at night and they look very similar to gen 2s but they look more like euros during the day.

they find enough time to put leds into GEN I's and call 'em gen III's but they don't launch gen II's for 95-96!!! I hope someone from altezza reads this!!!

They look ok to me except the reverse light, it need to be a full circle. Do gen 2s have that little light on the edge?

No kiddin, when are they gonna make gen II's for 95-96??? Those gen III's are worthless. Theres no substantial diff between them and the other altezzas.

Ehh, still don't like them. They look so much like the Gen1. They could have at least did something different instead of just adding an LED ring around each round lamps.

gen II's are the BMF of the aftermarket tails for the MAX.
