I have just seen a pic of an alero with vinyls covering the tail lights. The vinyls were matched exactly to the cars color and were cut into whatever design the owner wanted. Is this something i should look into or will it just look stupid when it's finished?

its one of those things you have to do to find out....different things look different on different cars........

i said different a lot!! :lol:

I think it depends on what ya cut out.. but I think it looks perdy neato!

i've seen some clean ones and some really butt ugly ones, it all depends on what you do (and the color of you car imo)

Well i was kinda thinking about designing the lights to resemble the skyline GTR tails (circular design)....thought that would give a sort of unique look to my alero

That design would look good

pretty much like some people said, depends on what you cut out, but if you like it bunny what others think

take a look at my car...i have the vinyl tails...love em

it's not a bad look...do it up!!

Umplumpa10, I think it was my tails that you just saw. I just did that a few weeks ago and I love it. You don't see it very often so it really stands out.

I don't know about the "design cutouts" or whatever but try blacking out the whole light...I'm positive you'll like it. Very cheap mod, yet one of my favorites.

Ohhh...and you'd be surprised at how nice some electrical tape looks. ;) Three stripes looks tight.

Heres mine, i had a local vynal shop do them

no flash

skiboarded that resembles the design i was looking for....how much did that run you from the vinyl shop?

i only got charged $40 cuz i knew the guy, but he said heed charge about 75-100, cuz it was all done by hand

Ski, that looks awesome. Do you have a pic in daylight?

Hey Ski, how do you put those on? And also, please get us a pic of them in the day.

this is the best pic i have right this second, i'll get another later on

Ok i lied, i lookd around and found a couplea more. These are about a year old though. B4 i got the flames and graffix and stuff

ALso i forgot to mention.

I would be willing to sell mine if the price was right, cuz i was thinkin of doin sumpin new this winter anyway

I might be intrested. how do they go on?

juz a couplea bolts not hard.

I'd send u all my taillights, u take urs out, put mine in and send me urs back.

Only takes a couplea minutes to take them out and put back in

Oh my Skiboard, that is the coolest thing I have ever seen. Thos tails look sooo good. How much you asking?

I'm pretty much opened to offers right now.

Like i said, i'm not really pushin to sell them, but if someone really wants them and offers a decent amount i will sell them

These definately look good, I saw them in person, if I had a black alero, I would buy them, so whoevers interested don't hesitate. :thumbsup:

:D :D :D :D :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :D :D :D :D :D

thanx

do vinyls on the tail lights look only good on cars that are black?

^^^ only if its black vinyl! :lol:

Ski, I'm not one for vinal covers but they reallydo look cool. :thumbsup:

Being from PA, did u ever get stopped for them?

hey ski...hit me a pm....I will buy them if they arent already sold...hopefully they arent illegal in MN

I never had any legal issues, and i've gotten pulled over a BUNCH of times with them on also my car has never failed inspection with them on.

I hate cops. I was pulled over 8 times for neon underbodies before one officer finally gave me a ticket. He inspected my car and only added a ticket for tint on the front windows. He also told me I should take off my license plate cover. As a good citizen I replied "yes sir" and forgot what he said.

ok, at first i thought he was talking about my car, it's all over the site. i'm doing the same thing with mine, putting black vinyl over them, just not with so many cut-outs. i haven't finished them yet, but i'm working on them. my question to skiboarder is if i get it done, i would like to get the same design. would that be cool with you?? :eek:

Ok, now i have a lil more respect for u.

After readin ur other thread, i was a lil pissed, but since u were man enough to admit what u were doin, i'll be civil.

I would appreciate if you would not copy mine exactly, but a similar design i can deal with.

Just as long as u give me props for the idea. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

also, i jus sold my taillights to another member, so it won't be my problem anyway LOL

thats all u bro.

Juz be careful!!!

whood you sell them to? i think a design similar to that would look good, but i don't want to put someone else's design on my car without their permission, got any ideas?

Wheres a good place to pick up some vinyl for a project like this, and what would look good for a silver alero with green neon lights? any ideas greatly appreciated, THANKS!
