I did the sexima tail light converision on my black max and boy does it look good! I got the tail lights for 70 used, and it cost 80 to paint them.

So here are the pics!

 

more + a pic of my diamond cut clear corners

 

Oh, its snowing out thats what all the crap is on the picture.

 

You didn't get the wedge bulb part circle painted? I know Sexima did, look better IMO. If only there's a way to paint the inside, I think it would look a whole lot better. Problem with painting the outside if you look at them at a certain angle, you could see the chrome. Still though, look much better than the regular chrome ones.

 

The guy who painted them said I would not pass inspection if they were painted Anyone know about this?

 

How come they dont come out to be complete circles? Is it supposed to be like that?

 

looks very good!!!!!!!

 

lookin good

 

LOoks pretty nice MAN!

What is that intake in your sig, Chrome?

 

yes it's chrome

shiny isn't it?



people have chrome intake manifolds,rims and super charger tubuing

so your point is....

dang what did I do wrong?

 

looks slick man!! good job!

 

impala style =)

 

Do you mean how it looks wavy? Thats just the way altezzas are and how it shows up on camera. They are complete circles... its kind of hard to explain it, why the look like that in the pic.

 

That looks really nice! I like the reverse signals too, they add to the whole circular figure. Wish I had a black Max... no, not really .

Nada wrong, just me likes

 

I love the look, I started painting my altezzas a day ago and its nice to see what they're going to look like on a black maxima. I was thinking about the reverse lights too...I decided to paint over mine and take out the bulb because my friend said that the extra light looked weird with the red lights anyways, but I think you got a unique look goin there, looks good either way, just so long as the chrome's gone.

Another thing...is that how the trenz grilles come for 95-96 maximas? It looks like theres a black border around it, what's up with that? i like it, it'd be nice to fix mine up that way.

keep up the good work, it looks tight

thank you man it's good to see someone on my side for a change...

 

Is that in the list ya gonna send me for april?

 

I need to send you something now don't I

 

wow i never thought they could look so good, gj, is there a way to make the inner lights like paint some more of the circle that would be badass imo.. peace

 

of course!

 

How hard is it to do the front headlight conversion on a 96 max to those of 2000-2002 lights?
gtr_max keeps posting a pic.
how they do that?

 

My body shop probably would want me to do that part. I was wondering if you masked it off yourself?

 

They look real clean. Normally not an altezza fan, but they look nice!

 

did you paint the inside of the lights or the outside?...what paint did you use?

 

i must say, fanfreakintastic. those look so schweet! good job

 

although I prefer the simple red/clear tail look more.. i still say that looks pretty good.

What i don't like most about altezzas is how the RED part, (or the circles) are this pale red color. The stock red in stock tails is much brighter and better looking.. altezzas are kind of dull and worn down

still nice though

 

THey look good! And it looks very warm there Take Care

 

You technically shouldn't pass inspection with those taillights anyway. They lack the reflective red piece that is on the side of all approved taillights. It's what makes even non-painted Altezza's illegal.
Look at cars that come with Altezza-style lights stock (i.e. IS300) They have reflective red pieces on the side of the taillights, whereas our Altezza's don't.
I looked this law up online, I forget the exact location, but its obviously true, just lok at any stock taillight.

Oh yeah, those taillights are badass. Get some red HotSpots LED clusters for the bulbs though to deepen the red color. Just my opinion.

Did u paint the outside or the inside? i have a 96 Max, Rosewood ( dark red) and im looking to do this 2, im kinda getting tired of the chorme

 

Those're Skyline GT-R R34 lights I believe. Probably average work (400-800 + paint), however since they're only available overseas, the cost on them is usually around $2000.

 

you can do anything you want to your car, someone is gonna do that 2k2 conversion but im not telling.

Anyway, Jesus Will!!! Thats the longest email I've ever had.
