Whoa, those altezzas look sweet!

I´ll definitely put some on my 94 if I don´t sell it first.
Along with taking the reflectors and spoiler off too.
Will be one of a kind!
:p

Where´s that guy that wanted to know the definition of RICE? :-]

Putting gobs of chrome behind clear plastic on a car that doesn´t incorporate chrome anywhere else in it´s design... got a shogun wing to go with those things? :p

How many of you know why they´re called Altezzas? (I´m not tryin to diss anyone, just wondering how many of you know)

The Altezza is a Toyota model designed to compete with the BMW 320i. It has a similar high output 2.0L inline 6 and like the 320i is not sold in the US. The chassis is used in the Lexus marketed IS300 here in the states. It´s taillights are of this same design. I used to love the sight of them on the IS300, but now that every ricer has them on his civic (as well as the new Nissan Altima).. they´ve lost their luster for me.

They´re mostly a fad though and will be considered faux pas whenever the next thing comes out. As you can probably tell, I´m not one to live at the height of fashion.

Hey, put what you want on your ride though. Personal expression never meant you had to please anyone else.

Finally 7 years after production of the 2nd gen has ended are we finally getting these lights. I can´t wait to get my hands on them.

Those lights will NEVER be on my car...Ok ok so you´re like WHAT?? :-? Here´s my reasoning. I just don´t think altezza´s look good on a Red car. I like how my car matches with the taillights and putting white/red combination in kind of screws with the reflectors and with the look of the car...just my opinion. If i had a white GT like Zeemax´s I´d get some altezzas, those´d make his car look sweet.

put those babies in the oven at 250 for 3 minutes, and pull em apart. mask off the light parts, use rubbing alchohol on the mirror part, and spray paint them. looks alot better than the original altezza IMO. Altezza´s are kinda shitty. If you do buy them use a clear silicone so that water and condensation don´t occur inside..
