It's called "shop before you buy". Just wanted to see what they would look like on the car. ChargeSpeed makes a CF center garnish $225.00 at IMRacing

http://www.i-m-racing.com/s1424si95.html

The corners include a center garnish but I think they look lame. Seen on ebay for like $395 or so...

^^^Now that looks good. Zenki tails look good on ruby red pearl and red S-14s. Kouki Tails look good on Super Black, dark blue or white cars.

Dude...there is absolutly NOTHING wrong with the stock Kouki tail lights! those are like the baddest lights out there! I bought a 1997 Kouki that was hit from the back & instead of putting the original Kouki tails...they put Zenki's! I would trade my like new set of Zenki's plus 200.00 for a pair of Kouki tails any day! anyone want to get rid of there Kouki tails...That deal is serious!

lol...no, They're not that hard to find...but they are pretty expensive! Over $300! as you can see in that pic, I still have alot of work ahead of me (the airbag deployment ripped that dash wide open) so I look for deals when I can get them....I'm getting rid of that S15 steering wheel anyway because I want a racing wheel with quick release & after I get my kouki tails...why would I need the Zenki's? So, the deal is legit! anyone who dosnt care much about they're Kouki tail lights...I'll trade the S15 wheel, Zenki tails & 50 bucks!

I saw a red kouki show car for sale on ebay once. He had taken the lenses off the tails and painted the black part red to match. Those looked amazing. I wish I could paint the weird reddish brown color on my zenki tails black... awesomeness.

I know I'd break the lenses though.

Do NOT "modify" Kouki tails, they're worth too much money.

If you like them, sell them on eBay and use the proceeds to buy something to replace them with.

personally, I like the Zenki tails if the strip in the middle is painted body color, I think that looks kewl.

I to am unsatisfied with the look of my kouki tails. I think I'm just going to hit them with some nightshades since my 240 is black.

No, my kouki is green.

Kouki tailights would be nice if they didn't have the steps in them.Zenki tails ftw!
