Do any of you guys care for clears on the s13 Coupe......

I personally like em.....They're just that one step away from being considered a ricer, yet they just enhance the cars look without being ricy...Just my thoughts

I'm getting them. My friend has the kouki tailights, so I dont wanna copy. I personally dont think it is rice. They arent altezzas. I think 260 or whatever ispricey, but ....

To be honest with you, they arent too popular or common. we dont see them too much. but i think they look good for clears, since they arent like the altezzas. white cars and black cars look hella good like that. a black car looks really good with them and clear front and side lenses. hope this helps.

Yeah my car is going to be resprayed either black or red. i think the clears would look mean on either color.

Yea the price is kinda steep, but just as you've said they are really a rarity on the 240sx themselves

I like them but i dont like the fact that they arent sealed. I wouldn't want them unless it was a show or sunny day only car. They do look really nice though. :batman

i think thats right. i remember someone posting a way to do it. i dont know if you have to strip them or what. but, i was just thinking, i think theres a second plastic layer behind the first and the orange is in the middle and you heat them up to get them apart. nobody do this as i dont want to be responsible for messing up someones car. i would say go to a junk yard or something and find a used set to practice on.

When I was apart of PreludeOnline.com I would read threads speaking about melting and shaving layers off of the tail lights in order to make them clear for basically nothing. I think thats what clearcorners.com does to the replacements tails you're suppose to send in the mail back to them...who knows though just really my speculation though...
