#70324, "Photochoped my tails clear, do I or dont I?"

So I have 2 pairs of all clear tails. Should I put em on. These are chopped on (not very well )and ever so slightly tinted. I love em but i dont know. Opinions?

I have never liked anything but the stock tails but... I must say that the clear tails look really good on your car. They match the reverse lights and it looks cleaner to me.

our rear ends are so hard to do anything with because of that damn trim aroung the licence plate...ghey IMO...but other then that I love the back bumper...flows nice with the front.

back on topic...I like it ... like ^^ said...goes nice with the reverse lights.

They intentionally made the Talon rears more difficult to keep the ricers from Altezzafying Talons. You can't say you've seen a riced out Talon tail with a goofy kit imo.
