crystal tail lights. your opinion please.

[daveyw]

still undecided on these. look good on some cars, naff on others. what do you lot think?

[sheldo]

personally i prefer original or just update lights. not to keen on crystal and dot work on many cars .

[Giggz]

Are you talking about the crystal/red ones? I was going to get them too for my black 325is but decided to wait and get all red ones.

[panesar_e30]

JUST SPRAY THEM RED, THEY LOOK THE BEST IMO

[Adammcf]

GAY!

[MrDazzle]

They looked good on the IS200...

But even Lexus have ditched 'em now, 'cause they look crap on nearly everything else.

[Gouki]

if your talking about the crystal clears (not lexus style) they are pretty much hit and miss depending colour of car. They look good on red and white cars as they blend in nicely but look a bit outta place on other car colours. Lexus ones are horribly styled, don't get those ones! I have them on mine, pic enclosed.

[Steviec]

I like them and have them on both of my E30's:

[daveyw]

yeah thats the ones i'm talkin about. i agree about lexus style lights, they suck. far too common with the saxo and corsa boys!
reason for asking is i'm unsure what to put on the touring i just got on ebay (15 mins ago!) its got red ones on at the mo and not sure about them either. might go for standard ones and tint the orange and white part of the lense and leave the rest red. dunno, will decide when i see the car in the flesh.

[daveyw]

GAY!

you're the zone camper mind!

na just leave them all red they are the best imo

yeah, mask off all red parts of the lense and paint the rest. not too boy racerish and looks like it came out of the factory. look at the later model peugeot 306 for example, they're done the same.

[stevetigger]

but its not a 306

[daveyw]

ok, bad example maybe

[fuzzy]

ive got the red/clear ones like steviec on my white touring.i think they look ok, better suited to lighter coloured cars i think

[hammoj28]

Never seen them with my own eyes but I think they could look good. Lexus lights suck and always have done. I personally prefer smoked ones or all red ones.

[Simon]

Those lights suck!!

They are a modern design light, on an 80's car...just wrong wrong wrong!!!

Leave them for the saxo's and nova's.

[Grantley]

Dont think those look any good on a e30, I'd go with red, smoked or even standard rather than those.

[Adammcf]

GAY!

you're the zone camper mind!

LOL! Oooh! Handbags at the ready.

[Kos]

they remind me of e28 lights, as gouki said your car has to be red or white possibly silver to pull it off

[Gouki]

your right about that, if you look at an E28 5 series and compare, look pretty similar.

[Gouki]

spookily similar! Probably how those lights were designed, probably based on those, god those old 5 series were classics man, shame you don't see em any more.

[Jordan]

I don't care for them one bit. I find them very ricy/distasteful.

[WerkdE30]

i see a lot of those old 5's at work.

dont mind the lights certainly a lot better than the lexus ones. i dont think theyd look to great with my blue paint tho ...

oh and please dont ruin perfectly good lenses by painting that tinting crap on them it looks so obvious n cheap

[DaveD]

naff!!!!!!!!!!!!! should be

[oguz327]

dont do it!

[scottybeemer]

ive got the smoked/red rear light(paid about Ԛ£15.00 +p&p),luv em,but dont know about anyone else,but they came with separete reflectors (and cant make my mind up where to put them or be a bit naughty and leave them off)

[Steviec]

Mine didnt cost much more. I think the reflectors look crap so ive left mine off
