Hot lava tail light ideas
 

Hi all, after some ideas for aftermarket rear lights for an frs/gt86 in hot lava/ginger/orange.

I like the Valenti lights but they don't seem to work very well with orange, a lot of people tend to go for the smoked version but not a massive fan of smoked rear lights.

A lot of the images in the tail light thread are on white or red cars where most rear lights work. Orange I feel is more of a challenge.

Buddy club may be a good choice, interested to hear what you think.

Thanks

Honestly, I think that a smoked-out look would be pretty good for orange. It would provide a nice contrast against the orange. I feel like the red lights tend to blend in a little too much. The chrome lights are a good contrast as well.


Those Buddy Club lights are pretty sweet. I just wonder how the reverse lights are. One of my favorite things about the stock lights is that the revers lights actually light up what is behind the car while I am backing up. It makes the camera really easy to use.

Tom's JDM clear lens. I know cuz thats what I have

If I was going to change the tails (I actually like the stock look) I would go smoked. Need to make sure that you do smoked all around the car though or then it looks silly.

I love the smoked look on Hot Lava, nice contrast piece. I smoked the stock tails since I love them, just dislike chrome with a passion.

Tada

Too much smoked. I will tint mine in a few weeks

You should do something with that Scion badge there Dave. The chrome clashes with the tails now. Would rock if black though.

I did a slight tint on mine.

Thanks guys, some great ideas here. I do like the valenti lights.

You do know that the reverse lights are not in the tail lights, right?

Edit: unless of course you have the diode dynamics tail as turn with reverse module. But that won't work right with any aftermarket lights.

That is a fair observation, I'm not the biggest fan of plastidip though... It's more the blinding shiny chrome that I hate. I find the badges to be a lot more muted.:iono:

Is more the black underneath, black on each side, lonely piece of chrome in the center that makes it stand out no. Camera angle probably doesn't help either though I guess.

I'm not sure where they are. I'm always in the car when they are on lol.
