Default Has anyone bought these tail lights for their z06?



I saw these on ebay for like $260.

Does anyone else have custom z06 tail lights on their z?

Yes they are.

Urban Dictionary Stand on Altezza style lights:

America got hooked. Many people bought Altezzas thinking it would give their car a "Tight Style" or "Many Many Features", thinking that it would make their car "Unique" and giving their car an "Individuality". Some thought it would give them "Up to 20 horsepower at the wheels!" Have you ever been down in Atlanta or Orlando? Everyone and their Grandma had Altezzas. "there m4d tyte y0!"

It's not because aftermarket Altezzas are impractical, not DOT legal, or have horrible light output, its not because they are cheaply made, or wired improperly, and its not because they fit horribly and attract cops, it's because they are really really UGLY.

STOP BUYING THEM!

Try spending your money on something else, like getting that door, fender or bumper painted to the RIGHT color. Sheesh.


Not to mention you'll likely get banned from this forum if you do violate your Vette with those lights.

Spend your money on an intake, exhaust or spruce up the drab plastic interior of your Vette.

Need I say more?

You know, I wish forum members would finally stop mincing their words, and once and for all, tell us how they REALLY FEEL about stuff like this!!

Oh, and by the way, about the lights------

I'll agree with that. I think these are the type of lights that would look better the further you got from the car.
