I'm about to start my custom tail light project. I made up some designs in PShop, and I need some opinions on these.

1: Black outline, with red turns and brake light with a thin line of clear around them. It would create a "halo" effect when the lights are on:

2: Black outline with all red turns and brake lights, reverse on bottom:

3: Black outline with all red turns and brake lights, reverse on top:

4: Black outline with the entire lense red, but with a rounded box on the bottom for a reverse light:

5: Same as above, just without the black outline, reverse on bottom:

6: Same as above, just without the black outline, reverse on top:

All designs have a tint on them, because I plan on smoking them afterward. Not doing so would make it stand out too much. I'm leaning towards 5 but I wanted some opinions first. :cool:

I like the last one Derek, not that you care what I think.
 






'Course I care what you think. :D

I think it's the other way around, you don't care what I THINK! ;)
 






I also like the last one, but the 'halo' effect sounds cool. When you say they'll have tint or smoke.. do you mean like BM's truck? I like the way his look.

4,1,2 In that order. The black outline really makes them nice.....
 






i think red with a halo in the middle, red on bottom and white on top...... then smoke all of it.......
 






Are Altezzas out of the question? If so, I'd go #1.
 






Yes altezzas are out of the question.
 






clear like on the passenger side :)
 






Not a chance, I might as well carry a box of donuts on my roof.
 






I dont like any of them. If it was up to me I would get a set of clears. Paint the brake light lens red so your legal and leave the rest clear. Then tint it.
 






hehehe why get clears, then tint them? thats kinda silly

Isn't he doing that? How else do you paint the lights how you want them?

Clears = clean slate to start with. Like a fresh page in a coloring book. :D

I don't want to leave them clear because I don't want to attract any unwanted attention from the red and blue PLUS they look funny on my black Ex.
