swapped tail lights
hey guys, just wanted to toss up some pictures of my new taillights. I "down" graded to the 82-85 base style, but they're much nicer quality that the old grids, plus they were only .01$ on ebay

this first picture is a comparison pic.

a little closer.

Here's the last picture, I tried to take it at an angle to capture a bit of the reflection on them. I used 2000 grit wetdry, wet sanded the crap out of them, and hit them with some carnauba wax.
I wish i had something more than this 2 megapixel camera, but not bad for a penny right?

I like them. Those are the same ones I had on my 85 sport coupe.

Yeah, mine had no spoiler either! I thought that they looked really cool like that!

I guess no one else wanted them, haha.
I agree with ya, a nice set of polished up grids look incredible. However, mine were far from par and also looked like they had resided in a sewer for 10 years.
I think these base style tails goes better with the simple sport coupe theme anyways.
