keep red/clear or go with stock?
I want a different look for my car. I have a '96 with a full 97-99 front and rear(minus bumper)conversion with a full Stillen bodykit. The trunk lid has the key hole shaved off. I just put back the MAXIMA emblem back on the trunk, looks pretty good. Also, I put the stock orange front bumper lens back on too. It gives my car a more unique look IMO with the Stillen kit. Anyway, I was thinking of putting the stock 97-99 tails back on to compliment the front orange. I'm also going to put a factory spoiler on too. I just think the front orange with red/clear look out of place, that's why I'm thinking of putting the stock tails back on. I know some of you think this combo will look ugly(I would think so too a few years back). However, I just wanted a different look to my car. Thoughts?
Btw, I'm running with H&R springs with the stock sawblades.

Ludacris: no pics of the car.
Anyway, thanks for the suggestion guys. I think I might still go with the stock tails. I think this "stock" or "sleeper" looking setup would look good. Now if I only have some power to back it up...lol.

I like the stock tails, I still use them myself. I am different than most on here.
However, I don't think they match with the front "orange" lenses. The rear's are kind of more yellow, and the front are more orange. At least on my 99, they are.
That is why I chose to get clear on the front, and leave the stockies on the back.

Am I the only one that thinks a Stillen kit is a definite 'non-sleeper' sign?
I'd go DTM with the Black Clear lights in the front...making sure to AE the headlights as well in black. Now THAT would be the ****.

I never like the look of smoked lens, whether it's for the tails or front bumper ones. Another reason I want to do this is because it would be easier to go back to completely stock if I choose to. All I have to do is just sell the bodykit.
