tail lights

So which taillights should i get? I think i want to go with some altezza's, but i want to make sure it doesnt look like crap. Does anyone have some pics of painted altezzas? I want to see how that came out.

Stole this picture from KA-T.org

They're really not bad looking; just tell people they're custom. Nobody should ever use the a-word...

Damn....thats pretty sick looking. I am pretty sure i am gonna paint my car black,and i was thinking it would look really sick to have altezzas that were "smokey" or whatever, but i didn't find any on ebay, and i don't know where else to look. but that looks pretty sick too, with the red. Do you know how they got it to be red like that?

Buy stained glass paint or something of the sort from your local hobby shop, and paint away. Don't forget to mask off reverse lights if you want them to show.

Can you just string LEDs from the tail light wires? I want to get 2 led rings and make custom tail lights with them.
