I'm perfectly happy with a lack of clear S14 tails.

they have led conversions and they can smoke them out but not clear them =/

I think the slight bit of white in the tail light accents a black fastback very nicely.. but what do i know, im just a genius

Dont follow a style.

Do what you like, screw what everyone says.

If I followed what other people think is stylish, I would have a ground effects kit and spoiler on my car.

Screw that.

I would not put clear tails on my car, I just think us s14 owners are forgotten at times.:(

I purchase the half white half red taillights for my coupe, from mike last year. It took him a couple months to do with my taillights, b/c they are so busy all the time. When I finally got them a month after expected,They looked real good on my car but I could tell it didn't take much work. When I got them back they never used any adhesive or anything to seal them, they just use two rivets from a rivet gun on the sides that kept it together, eventually water started to go through when it rained and washed my car. It really sucked.I contacted mike again and he is going to fix my problem by sealing personally himself.So I really can't complain since his going to fix it,its just that for 400 bucks you would think it would be sealed.

I've always liked clearcorners clear indicator portion of the fastback tail lights; on a black car atleast. I think it just looks nice and clean.. I don't like them on the coupe tho, it looks very integra-ish..

On a white car, I think the first one would look pretty cool. It would be reminiscent of the s14's because all you'd be able to see from a distance would be a red strip :)(s14 style)
