Clear taillights.... Yes or No?

[NORTI]

Im asking if I should let Ben talk me into clear (not altezza roundish ones) taillights for the VN. These are just like factory ones but clear. Not 'altezza' style like VR/S ones.


What do you think?? I saw a white VP at RCK & it looked good. I have imperial blue VN & cus is a 'S' it has the black garnish....


what do you think?? Good, Bad, Ugly?

its hard to picture what it would look like with blue paint and black garnish it might look good but maybe it would look better with tinted taillight to match the garnish

[V-ahhh]

i like them they look good, the would be suited 2 blue i reckon

[azkwazere]

id say no... i think the taillights look better darker not lighter. Ive seen a few black one's with the clears and it looks ok.... but only cos of the contrast.

so... NO.

aZk.

[gooley]

did that vp still have the red garnish ive seen one like that probably on RCK as well it looked ok but the garnish needs to be black or grey or whatever not red

[NORTI]

theres also a VN down the road here thats had the rear garnish removed & maybe cus it white I dunno, but it looks fantastic & I think the clear lights would really suit it. If I had a white VN I would definetly do that, remove garnish & do clear lights. I agree about VP's with the red garnish & clear lights, looks a little funny.


Should I just get them & throw them on??? Sell them if they look real crap??

Just a quick chop of my car to show clear rear lights. I think it's imperial blue and my garnish is pretty dark since I polished it I tried to get the lights pretty close to what they actually look like, but maybe still a bit grey. There you go anyway.

nice chop
im buyen clear tail lights for my wagon.
but i reckon clear lights suit white cars better. but then again they look good in that pic

[xcop5l]

dont like em go factory or go darker

[fu2]

dark car go for dark lights. not a fan of the white lights for vns. looks just like a couple of faded ones to me

[FadeToBlack]

I don't think those lights look good on any VN/VP's.

[Emackulation]

Neither, Im against the whole Clear tailight saga.

If it was me, i'd go the ones with just clear indicators and reverse lights. That way the rest of the lens has got close to the original tint. It's the best of both worlds IMO.

Now that'll look good, but I would tint it if the cars a dark colour, and for clear lens, I reckon will look good on a white or light blue colour.

Dont like em unless the car is white and the garnish is white as well. But they are illegal and ugly so no.

That would be the only good part to ever come from a Lexan

Don't like em .. Son't waste your time with em ..

[VNV6VENGEANCE]

they look shit unless the car is kitted to the max with paintjob to suit. look a little jap tho....

[pro_gmh]

imo if you have the blck garnish, then tinted taillights are the only way to go. but if you have a colour coded garnish then it may look good.

[Goodloox_Nogutz]

I agree with most of the people above, tinted would look heaps better than the clear ones.

that was the same colour as the VN with clear taillights I looked at today, & I looked at it for awhile. But I think being an 'S' & that I have all that red pinstriping etc.... that all clear just wouldnt work, Im quite interested in this clear indicator idea thou. Basicaly red top & bottom clear middle right??

Do that Countess, the clear indicator one, that is! I don't know, I think the whole clear lights, look sorta cheap and crappy, but the clear indicator sounds good!

[scared_]

i'd tint then personaly. clear lights wont really match the black boot garnish.

[WaynoVN]

I prefer dark tail lights...looks meaner/stealthier
