I'm not a big fan of it either but it is your car and if you are happy with it than that's what counts.

If you're really serious about replacing those tail lamps... use the ones out of a Hakosuka or a C110, not a Camaro.

Rinkya, maybe. I didn't say it would be easy/cheap, but custom things like that rarely are if you want to do it right.

Good on a Ferrari, but what are you gona look at in the back of a Z? Some old dirty clothes, besides Ferrari has the engine in the rear, we'll just be sniffin alot of exhast fumes. Now a grill look that's not see through I can understand. I like the round lights, what's wrong with that, it's how it should of been anyways. NO, but the Skyline got em. Japan always makes the better things for themselves.

Backup lights would be another concern. These are mounted in the bumper?

i would definitely consider the old circle skyline lenses. i agree with you Paul it should have had them all along. i have found a fabricator for my rear tail light idea. but this won't be a final design until winter probably. i keep thinking of different lenses to use(thanks Chris :) ) i think if i can find 72 skyline lenses i will do that. if you guys could help me hunt them down that would be great.
a lot of secret projects will be taking place this winter....muhahahahahaha :twisted:

R32/34 lights wouldn't look bad either.
