Default 2000+ interesting cool tail light mod

i see this cardomain member was a member here long time ago i dunno if hes still active or not
but i saw this for the first time i thought it would be nice to share with newer members or people like myself who havent seen it yet
this would look awesome on a silver or white car, and also maybe black

what do you guys think

I've done the same mod:





I did it back in 2004 when LED bulbs were starting to gain popularity. I found that they didn't light up bright enough when I pressed the brakes so I cut the dim wire from each center bulb so that the outside lights will be on all the time, and the middle one on each end would light up when I pressed the brakes.

I think it looks great..especially on white!

Definitely a look I would rock if I didn't go the tinted route.

Ehh...just looked closer. I love the cleared out look, but the round circles that are visible when it is cleared kind of bother me and make me not like it as much.

I like the look of a totally clear taillight on your GP'*. The bonne it'* just too much, not to mention the horrid dimples and the fact it'* completley illegal and dangerous not having a rear facing red reflector
