I was searching around on ebay and found some clear tail lights! I was amazed! Although they cost about $350 for a set, it's well worth the cost! Go check it out!

here's the pic they used.

I think I remember him saying some guy was selling them for him. The thread may have been deleted or dropped off because it was awhile ago.

some guy is selling those lights for bryce(ander) and he does live in south dakota. And, $350 is a great price considering there are only 14 alero's in the United States With Modified Tail Lights (That Bryce Knows Of)

I didnt know those were the altezzas, I thought the altezzas had red dots in them. Anyways i think they look pretty swell, and i dont own a pair.
P.S. That wing looks good too.

those aren't Altezzas. Altezzas do indeed have the red dots. But NOBODY EXCEPT FOR ANDERBRA makes aftermarket taillights for the Alero. He made the few (maybe it was just ONE) set of altezzas.

IMO they really don't look all that awesome...the white on white looks almost fake, the black car was alright, but i'm just as happy with regular ol' red tailights

He was buying and selling them from me on Ebay. I think that is his car that they are on.
every set is different and hand made. 20-40hrs worth of work depending on what they entail.
these are a style of the altezzas ive made

Well, for my alero, I think the original factory tails look pretty good... I was interested in clear tails, but still not sure what to get...

well here's the general idea how to make them... you have to take off your stock tails... and take the lenses off without breaking them... then you have to get a piece of lexan to bend to the shape of the lense... my guess would be with an oven... something with constant high heat and no hot spot... such as a heat gun... becasue the lexan will fry... the thinner, the easier... once you have the general shape molded you have to cut out the pattern and cloth wheel the edges smooth and rounded on one side... then it's just a matter of figuring out if you wanna do any other customizing and glue them on the housings...
