i rock my 02 es tail lights on my msp. in case you havent noticed msp tails are diff from all other proteges. the clear part has a pinkish tint to it unlike every other model proteges tail lights. so yea i swapped to get rid of the gehy


this is not under tha top subject but... what do u guys think of an 03.5 MsP wit a03.5 front endand a 03 rear spoiler and rear lip(car is gun metal)? or 03.5 frintend and 03 rear spoiler(gun metal)? which would look better or is it ugly...? and if ne1 got pix of it alrdy done! would b helpful!!
 
Well...I think that the 03 wing in general is kinda nasty, but that's just me. I'd go wingless if you want the sleeper look. Either that or a carbon fiber trunk.

too get rid of the yellowing of the lens try using some rubbing compound get rid of it.

i will probably have to take it apart, its probably on the inside right? i dont want to just rub the outside with compound and just have a yellowish scratched up tail light
 
Good luck getting it apart bro... ones I have messed with are sealed and molded together... aftermarket tails that is...

i doubt im going to do that, does anyone have any other pics of theirs? the ones on the yellow msp down below that were posted arent the right ones. i found some on a website that APC makes but they wont respond back to me with a picture of them
 
ya if you find a picture of Tom's (aka BoomerGT) he has the best ones i've ever seen (no red marker on the side)

IIRC, he had the APC ones with the red side reflectors painted Titanium. I think. It was awhile ago, but I believe I spoke with him back in the day when he was talking about selling those tails, because I have a Titanium.

For those wondering what the APC tails look like on a MSP .. Here's my APC ones on my Titanium. And please don't laugh TOO hard at my car. This was late this past spring, when my car was filthy and still winterized. In other words, it looked like hell! They looked much better when the car was actually clean, with the wheels and all the other exterior stuff finished.

I have these off my car now, and I'm going to sell them. They're already semi-spoken for despite the fact that I have no FS thread posted yet, but since I haven't seen any money, I'm still taking offers if anyone's interested. The FS thread will go up very soon.
 
no Toms are accualy MADE without the red reflecters that is why they are so cool/rare

Ooooh, really?

I remember, before I got my APC's, that I ordered a set (not the APC) off of Ebay. They looked similar to the ones Jenn has on her car. EXCEPT that they didn't have ANY red reflector.

.. However, half the pair was destroyed during my incident with a guard rail about two years ago. I was pretty heartbroken, especially when I tried to get another set without the red reflectors and was informed that they weren't available.

CF trunk and matching tails + interior and hood :) the s3x
especially with the cf trunk! cuz then you can trully tell how fake the cf tails are....i personally hate the cf tails.but thats just me. so whatever floats your boat. but those tells used to be sold without the red reflector. but now they are sold with the reflector due to US regulations. so if your heart is set on buyign them without....find a member here with originals or find someone in europe/asia selling some.
 
these are the tails, i got them out of storage tonight but i lent my camera to a friend for the day. so tomorrow i will get official pics! i promise!! here are pics when they were on my car! sorry for the delay!
