    installed my 99 spec tail lights yesterday, but which do you prefer? (try to imagine the smoky tail lights being darker btw) :)

    Stay 2k damn it. Smokey not legal and as gay as my Ferarri's :p
    Keep the lights the way they are.

    I think they're legal if you leave that small reflective section untouched, which I did at first but didn't look real good.

    *shrug* the new ones gives a cleaner/newer look I guess but still can't say I'm that keen on any stock tails.

    i'd go the 2k one's mate, the smoked one's look a bit 80's or something - won't be as timeless as the 2k's.

    Both look good.
    The smoked ones make your Z look a little meaner..
    The 2k's make your Z look cleaner...

    Can't wait to wack my 2k's on, I hate the orange indicator lenses...:zlove:

    I'm not 100% keen on either, need to do some kinda customizing!

    btw, are those new rims on your Z? and how is it going now? did you get it tuned etc?

    i rkn the smoked makes ur car look mean.. but with the spec lights it makes ur car look modern...
    depends on what look you after and like lysergic said.. it comes down to what u like...

    yeah they are my new wheels. love em. the car is running good. i am gonna get another tune again soon now that i've got a new boost controller and a stronger tranny. i have pretty low compression though so i don't expect anything special. either way with the current tune it's pretty quick.

    Sorry to tell you but they are NOT legal... they do not comply with relevant ADR's as they have been modified from OEM.

    I prefer the 2k/99specs they make it alot cleaner/fresher but still staying within the original design.
    I'll be keeping my original tail lights as i'm wanting to keep my zed as original as i can.
