I've been talking with BlueBat about getting some overlays made for the protege5 taillights. Depending upon your responses and interest shown we should get some options for the protege5 tails. the two options are weakly photochopped but it gives you an idea as to what each option'll look like.

I think it would look a lot nicer if they were doen exactly like he did with the G35, just one peice so it all kind of looks like one color.

full tint

besides, the skill to line up those clear circles with the lights on the tail light is beyond most of the ricers on this board, lol.
 
If you do full then those that want the white circles can cut them out them selves.

I am all for the tail light overlays. Mazdasports will most likely do another club group buy.

1. Fully smoked will def get you pulled over since it will be harder to see the
reverse and turn signal.

2. It will be dark as hell at night.
 
to give you an idea, her is mine with the tail sprayed and the circles left clear. Used vinyl to cover them and blacked them out.

3. That is why we should get them done like this look how clean and
cool that looks smoke the whole thing and it's going to look stupid.

that's what I thought I wanted at first but I think that since my car is red, having a full smoked outline (the entire way around the tail) is what'd look best. that not withstanding, she did a good job.

bump. vote if you haven't already. even if you don't think you'll buy a set, just vote on what you would purchase if you were in the market...
 
Personally, I think full smoke looks best. Much cleaner. As far as them being too dark, the standard 6/10 tint isn't all that dark. Just appears that way in the pics. The reflectors can be seen from quite a distant.

Ok this pic might have just changed my mind, Bat when do you think we will be able to see these on a Protege5? Did you get a test car yet?

Still waiting. I've already done them on a G35 and G35 Sedan, those Galleries are up. PM me people, if you want these!
