Default Tail Light Kit

I'm looking for a clear tail light kit for the coupe, and the only tail light kit I've been able to find is the smoke. Does anyone know where I could find a clear tail light kit? Factory is very bleh...

For those who need visual reference, the factory-installed tail light kit on some of the Mazda3's is sweeeeeeeeet.

Thanks man, those blacks would look good on my glxy grey EX 2d Coupe with the rest of the setup I have.

I didn't find anything searching regular ebay auctions, fgparts or jdm... I talked to a store that stocks altezza and he was saying that chrome or black tail lights didn't yet exist and wouldn't for another couple of months which kinda leads to me to be somewhat skeptical... can anyone vouch for vertex racing? I'm unfamiliar. Maybe the guy I spoke with was full of manure...

i'm sorry, are you looking for "altezzas" or are you looking for like "headlight armor" (which they also have for taillights)?

the hid blue headlight armor, does that actually make the bulbs look brighter? i have 8500k bulbs in there and just wondering if they make the appearance more blue? and does it effect the brightness and visability?

actually, would be interesting to see this

with a <FONT COLOR="red">RED</FONT> film over the lights (except the turn sigal/black part) or ALL blacked out on a black FG coupe...

i did that once, i bought altezzas off this dood for $20 (i figure'd right now, try sum'n different) was going to black them out so i didn't ruin my OEM ones and put them on my FBP (black) 2000 Si, never got around to it though lol

damn they charge alot for new model altezzas. give it some time and watch the price drop to about $90. dont waste ur money on that crap. but if u like it and u have extra cash and want tail lights instead of say a SS, intake, axle back, or headers... then do it to it. but if u are all stock inside the engine bay, and u have those on ur car, expect to have people revving at u all the time. have something to back it up. my $0.02

i have to admit i have the black taillights and black projector/angel eye headlights on my black teg....it actually looks really really good, especially at night (as you can see in my avator) and it helps see better at night...gives it kind of a "ghost" effect because everything including the windows are pitch black....however the headlights for the fg are like $400 on ebay....maybe in a few years? lol

Link to this? I am trying to find an OEM styled aftermarket headlight with projectors built in. I can't seem to find what you're talking about on ebay.
