New pics of my skyline taillight mod look inside***

Hi guys!

These are the first preliminary pictures. I had the first set made in white so we could all appreciate the detail. I would like to hear all of your opinions, I am also going to make some other designs and I would like some help here

Here's the link: http://www.ionicdynamics.com/Skylinedecalkit.html

These are the stock taillights with my vinyl decal kit installed.

I also wanted to add that we can make custom designs for the exterior of your car.

Thanks!

Looks pretty good. Would love to see it on a max. So it just sticks on over the tailight huh. Nice to see that some people are working on new things for the max!

Wow those things are ugly unless you are painting the vinyl. Yoy should do it on some red clears and paint them, and put them on a max to see what they look like.

I know that I need to clear those tails out, but I never got around to that because I put some altezzas on.

I will have some pics with some black decals on Monday.

Thanks!

i worked at a sign shop and did a lot of vinyl on cars.. my recommendations would be to wrap the vinyl all the way around the light at least around all the edges and make it look cleaner.. the red line on the edge is kind of blah. It wouldn't be too much work just make angled cuts on corners and wrap around.

my $0.02, would make it look like it was supposed to be there.

it looks good and i'm happy to see that there are people trying to do things different out there, but i think they are going about it the wrong way. Maxima's have problems as far as looks and a nice body kit takes care of that. One of the things that looks good on a maxima are the back lights and IMO, the skyline lights dont look that great especially with the blinkers at the bottom, the back of the skyline looks good but not the lighting in general. I dont think there's much better upgrade than the red/clears...time to focus on something on the maxima that needs improvement....like front head light one piece w/ projectors.

Those things are ridiculously hideous... Looks like somebody beat altezzas right when you thought it couldn't get any worse...

It is good that ionic dynamics is constantly making new parts for the max....
...but these things look really ugly. I saw a 3rd or 2nd gen prelude riced to the max the other day with something that resembled these closely.

Thanks for all of the good and bad coments, it's obvious that not everyone is going to like this mod.

I am going to try and make the circles a little bigger on the next set that I make but all of you have to keep in ming that I am limited to the size of the OEM red and amber segments of the taillights.

I also need to know if anyone has a design that would look good on the taillights, I would be willing to make it
