Slo-030. Healthy Dose Of Aussie Muscle Ahoy

[SLO-030]

I only taped off the reflector because if its parked on the side of a dark street i don't want anything increasing the chance of somone not seeing it. I could darken the lights even more, i'd just be the case of getting LED lights to replace the bulbs.

Looks good but is defetctable, I did mine on the seca one night and left the reverse lights clear, Looked pretty good.

I wouldnt say its that dark it would really be an issue. I mean you can get tinted tail lights off the shelf aswel. While i had both tail light assembelies out the thought of doin something like the mazdas had. Polished stainless plate with 3 round lights. maybe.

[Trev]

The lights are no longer red, yellow/orange & white, And the ones off the shelf are not legal, Clear tail lights are illeagal unless you get the proper manufacturer card.

Well looking at them (not at a picture) they are still pretty red. and those are only the parkers.

they look good but maybe defectable. or worst still if there was an accident lets say a car rear ended you and the other driver said they couldn't see your lights the insurance company may try to make you pay.

It's a pitty seeing as they do look good. Then again fashion isn't better then the law. If there was some way for this to work and still be legal though I would be interested.

i washed mine off today with turps, didnt like it anyway ;)

[SLO-030]

So its removable with turps ay?

[trav_555]

yea man, well on an e7, try a lil bit on yours first

 

to make sure it dosent darn the plastic ;)

[SLO-030]

Shouldn't crap the plastic. Goin to UPI tomorrow so i'll try get a better left tail light as the one i currently has is more faded than the right hand side.

 

Might even grab another good set and darken the one i currently have even more for when i take it to show and shines, like i do with me ute.

[SLO-030]

new 4K's gonna need to be dropped in soon. I have a feeling the current ones packing it in, slowly.

 

Added things up and looks like it will cost about $1000 to get the SC setup running. That doesnt include Fuel system as i already had half of the stuff i need. nor does it inclde plumbing as i can make it from the scrap at my exhaust place.

a mate of mine made a full set of custom led tail lights for his gemmi using the standard brackets and everythin so if he gets defected he can change it back it looks phat as mayb think bout that for a tail light setup?? :)
