I just got new Tail lights for my mcs, I like to know what everyone thinks of them.

Ok i have add some more pic's so you can have a better look at them.

Thanks

Actually very nice, and thats coming from someone who normally hates tail light mods (particularly the plain white ones). I have not seen any like them on the roads in London yet. Where did you get them and were they reasonably priced?

I have the first one's out on the market. It has not been released to the public yet. My friend is the marketing manager for APC and he asked me to put them on my car so he could take pictures for his cataloge. I asked him about price and he says that it is going to be very competive with all the other lights out there. Also the sides of the lights come in different colors. So that you can paint them in any color. The ones i got are the Cromes, he has black that can be painted or carbon fiber.

The light are from APC in Corona, CA USA.

I do know if he ships out of the country. They are not a small company they are a very large company that sells a lot of after market stuff. I just saw there place today at it would take you about 5 min to walk to the other side.

the place is huge.

i will find out for you guys where he will be selling it, in europe. I know that some of the stuff is going to be going to gemany.

I agree with Adam. I really don't like tail light mods, but those do look good.

NEMINI · Jan 9th, 2004, 03:25 AM

Those are not for me.

mini_magik · Jan 9th, 2004, 12:19 PM

Hi, I think that those tail lights are rude

. I have been looking for a set of tail lights for a while now and these are right up my street.

Same as AdamLondon69 really, i live in the UK 30 from london and would also be very interested in a set.
If you could find out any information on shipping and cost - so on then it would be very much appriciated.

Cheers Mate

They look great ! Much better than the factory all white mod. I am definitely interested in getting those for my car. How long before they will be available for sale ?

I think they're pretty good. I too usually am not a fan of the aftermarket lights, but they're OK.

Not sure about UK and other countries though, because it appears (and I could be wrong) there's not two red bulbs, one brake and one fog, on each side?

andyupnorth · Jan 9th, 2004, 04:56 PM

They don't look bad actually - far better than those awful white rear lights you see knocking around. Mind you I've never known anyone over the age of 21 who liked those!

planeguy · Jan 9th, 2004, 05:03 PM

The pics make US and Canada non-rear fog owners jealous

rica_roel · Jan 9th, 2004, 05:30 PM

I can say that I don´t like them, any tail light mod, specially this ones they look fasta nd furious type like a honda civic moded.

diferent things for diferent choises that is the good thing in this world.

mini_magik · Jan 15th, 2004, 07:54 PM

Any news on the postage to the UK and the time and relase of the tail lights.

Any info would be good.

Thanks

JANKSRT · Jan 15th, 2004, 08:06 PM

I Think Those Lights Make It Look Like A Honda Type R Or Somethin!
I Like Them Stock To Be Honest!
