Headlight and Taillight 95-96 Ideas...

Im totally in love with supra tails on a clean back-end... i havent seen anything else really... my friend has a custom LED setup on his s14, but I'm talkin tails I can buy... someheads too, Ive only seen the commons(R33, S14/15) what do you guys think? Or have you seen? Or would you like to see? I'm willing to try something new out...

personally i would leave it the way it is...especially the back end

you could do an r33 headlight conversion, its been done, looks pretty nice, and of course the heralded s15 conversion...

i personally would do a kouki s14 conversion...costs ~$1200 or so...and looks mean as hell, and its all bolt on...

^Good lookin out.. I love the R33 headlight conversion, I can pick up a set of heas for pretty cheap...

I cant STAND the stock 240sx back, Well.. its alright... but after seeing a supra taillight conversion im IN LOVE. quite possibly the cleanest backend i've seen...

Have you heard or seen anything on this J30 Taillight conversion? .. I heard OF IT, but havent seen anything... hmm

what about JDM Mr2 tails? just brainstorming

im not a fan of taillights conversions unless they were meant to be on the car (IE, 180sx type x tail lights) i say naw on the MR2 lights..supra taillights are..not very good lookin, LED "conversions" are nice

I always wanted to see the R33/34 tail lights on our beloved 240s, but I think it involves more work than you have any idea. new trunk lid, lights, and tons of fabrication on the stock quarter panels, but I think it would look really sweet. Although I do like the supra lights, they are way over played out from everything like hondas to anything you can think of. just try and be a little more original is what Im tryin to say.

^I like the idea of the skyline tails.. thought about it before.. body work is no problem, I do all my own shaving and fabricating and I got a uncle who does fiberglass.... anyways, Yeah I feel you on the supra tails being played out... then again, they're not gonna be on a honda, or a mitsu.. ya know? 240sxs are already rare around here... so IMO a "common" set of lights on a "rare" car dosent make it a common conversion... I wouldnt mind seeing a pic of some R33/34s on a 240 tho...
