Crystal Tail Lamps

I know this should be in the Ebay / Styling section, but I'm so enthused by the latest styling modification to arrive on Ebay that I wanted as many people to see them as possible.

Some of you may claim they're 'rice' etc... but VW's have had them for years, and I have wanted them on my E30's for years too! Shame they only cater for the Chrome Bumper'd E30's at the moment...

See this link for further details...

I REALLY like them!

Giles.

They're not bad (as per my vote placed), without seeing them for real, it would be difficult to say if they would look a little too modern on the e30.

Are they going to make them for the later model. I find it odd that they make them for the earlier model not the later? Surely the market for the later model is bigger?

Dave... did you check the link out with my old cab with them on...?

Post Mon Jan 31, 2005 11:08 am

Styling/Ice section is better suited for this to be honest, I'd need to see a pic before I vote - I saw a Mk1 Golf with crystal headlights yesterday that are really good tho.

Post Mon Jan 31, 2005 11:15 am

those are sweeeeet

real bummer they don't make them for the late models

Sorry, just saw the link!
Not my cuppa, might be down to the colour of the car tho? Maybe on a red car, but doesn't do that cab any favours.

Look cool an the cab i reckon, always wanted these on my Mk1 Golf!

Post Mon Jan 31, 2005 11:59 am

Giles,

I did see the link, they look smart, but still wondering if they look a little too mordern.

However after reading about the Mk1 Golfs, I remember seeing a set and thinking they look good.

I'd still like to see a set close up on a car!

Probably tempting though, depending on price!

they do do the lights for the facelift model...

what currency does scandinavia use? exchange rate?!

Post Mon Jan 31, 2005 12:52 pm

the would be 150,96 pounds
exchange rate is: 1 SEK = 0.0759366 GBP

I'm the same mate! wont make a decision till i see them for real!

Post Mon Jan 31, 2005 5:01 pm

They rule!!! I want some! been waiting for these for ages after seeing them on so many wicked euro golfs! fingers crossed they make them for the facelift car or its fabrication time lol.

Post Mon Jan 31, 2005 5:34 pm

Not just me then!

I don't think changing all the rear panels to the chrome bumper set-up is such a good idea though...

Glad someone else is as enthusiastic about them as me.

Post Mon Jan 31, 2005 5:56 pm

hmmm your probably right

will be keepin everythin crossed they bring out some later versions there so cool :bling:

Post Mon Jan 31, 2005 7:40 pm

Does anyone know of a UK supplier for these?

And if not,is anyone else seriouslty considering getting some, maybe we could do a group buy and get the costs down. At least save on the shipping.

I want some for the touring!

Post Mon Jan 31, 2005 10:02 pm

i think they suck ass, but thats my opinion....wheres russ? he'd like em! :lol:

Post Mon Jan 31, 2005 10:53 pm

Dude... they won't fit the Touring... Chrome bumper'd cars only... sad I know... I can't have any either. Just have to wait till they start making the facelift units...

Scott... I can't believe you don't like them... *cough* E36 *cough*

Huh... cool!

Post Mon Jan 31, 2005 11:41 pm

would it ,hypothetically, fit an m3?

Post Mon Jan 31, 2005 11:45 pm

Not so sure though...

Would have to see a 'real' pair of the red/clear units on a car I think... Simon...?

Rags... yeah, the early lights will fit an M3...

IN a word... erm gay! :lol:

Post Mon Jan 31, 2005 11:53 pm

Giles, the picture which changed your mind from liking them to not, has done the opposite for me. I think they look smart there.

Would like to see them on the back of a red touring ideally!

Not my cuppa but if you like them, I'm happy for ya

Post Tue Feb 01, 2005 10:02 am

I think they're very nice- maybe a little modern for say, my M3 (although I'd be tempted to see what the black ones looked like), but I think they freshen up the rear-end (oo-er) nicely.

They're very Vw/Euro look IMHO so I don't think they look rice at all.

Now Lexus lights- they are RICE!

Post Tue Feb 01, 2005 10:44 am

Yeah... I don't know how you can call them Rice... all the Euro VW and Audi owners rave about them, and the best VW's all have them on... even the Mk1 Golfs...

Bloody Audi drivers... :lol:
