Looks great! How long have you been working on them?

Any word yet when or IF custommaxima.com will provide red/clears for the 95-96's this month as was planned?

A couple hours

I got some used ones that I "refurbished." I planned to paint the inside, like you're supposed to, but the old paint and my cleaner fogged up the plastic. I ended up just repainting the oustide.

The Album is "RED-CLEAR"

nice lights

that's some nice lights now that I think about it.I bought some altezza's from ebay and the guy took off with my money so I've decided to either wait to see if gen2 altezza's will come for gen4 max or go with the red/clear.

Much better than painting/taping the ambers!

Amusing (to me) that you removed all your letters, I removed my hamburger. I'll ship you an extra hamburger if I can have your letters!

Congrads on the Red/Clear project, it really did come out very well. I have had mine for a lil bit now, and you do notice em every time you walk from behind your car. Very rare product, but very worth the time/effort/money.

Nice. Hell, I'd do them myself if I knew where to get all clears from. Where did you find them?

These are my David L's red/clears. You can't even tell the difference between mine and his custom ones



I know I know, my rear bumper looks very bad. I'm getting it repainted soon.
