I have yet to see them on a Rex but the consensus is that they look almost stock, so they're not "ricey". I personally do not care for the stock tail lights and the jags are a good substitute. The only problem is finding a set that aren't complete shit. It seems as though altezzas aren't made very well and they tend to leak.

I don't know why you guys would put altezza's on your car. I think it's just too much white and [br]takes away from the rest of the car.

I guess it's a good thing that you're not paying for my car then. I have the black chrome so actually there's no white at all.

YEAH IF YOU WANT ALTEZZAS ON YOUR REX, YOU SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A DAMN HONDA CIVIC AND PUT THE BIGGEST "TYPE-R" BADGE YOU COULD FIND ON IT! THEN PUT SOME NITROUS IN IT AND CLAIM YOU BEAT LINGENFELTER CORVETTES BECAUSE THEY'RE SLOW OFF THE LINE! I hate altezzas and im fired up!

I completely agree. In my opinion, altezzas don't belong on rex's, or on pretty much any car for that matter. I've seen nice BMW's that are very visually appealing with nice body kits, a nice tint, great rims, lowered...and then you see the back with those giant horrendous gaudy altezzas. they just don't belong there. The extent of my liking of altezzas is the Lexus IS 300...those are acceptable because they're not so flashy...subtle kinda (for altezzas). Turning nice respectable cars into a ricer is a crime. And what a waste of money too. I mean, you coulda put that money to some performance modifications so next time you reace somebody, you can beat them, instead of having some crazy ugly rear lights....if you're racing people and you're a ricer, in most cases, no ones gunna see your taillights...you're going to see theirs. Anyway, i pretty much totally agree with Ho's post above. thats it.[br][size=small][p][Edit by Rogue3000 on Friday, September 26, 2003 @ 12:16 AM][/size]
