Would these look ugly?

[UFO70]

I love my MSP, but I thought they could have done better on the tail lights and headlights. What do you think of these tail lights? They're black.

They don't look bad, but I like the car as it is

 

[mspeedpro]

i like em, how much are they and where can u get em?

 

[REMillers]

Mmm I dunno about putting them on a Spicey Orange, perhaps a black but not the orange.

Any deviation from the factory tail or headlights indicate 'rice' to me. 'Just my 49 year old opinion, though.

 

[Swerny]

Ok here's a 29 year old guy's opinion (Just kidding AGR #7)!
I think they look pretty good. I HATE Altezza's, so i was a little scared when i hit the link.

I don't like the stock tailights on my Orange car, the red and orange seem to clask badly IMO.

The night i bought my car, my buddy was there, and he said " you have to do something with the tailights".

What to do... that's the problem. Can tailights be tinted with window tint?? Don't flame me, i don't know so i'm asking.

I spray tinted my GYI tailights when i was 18, but won't be doing that ever again!

MS MSP #143

p.s. Sorry about Andretti at Indy AGR #7, are you still in mourning?

 

[funnylittlman]

What happened to Andretti? ?

 

[REMillers]

Was suppose to be his last race there etc. He is retiring I think.

 

[funnylittlman]

Oh, ok

I knew that... I thought he crashed and burned or something

 

[ping]

Sheesh - AGR#7 and I are in the same decade of our life!
For the record, he's older...

Those don't look too bad, but agree that they'd look better on black than orange IMHO. I'm a red-taillight guy myself, more stealthy.

 

[Street KingFD]

AS long as they are NOT CLEAR! They look alright, don't know if I would do it or not, I'd have to see them on a black MSP first but they do look better with the black chrome tinting or whatever than the regular clears. I guess it's nice rice... ?

 

[yashooa]

Sweet

I aint really into the light although they arent as bad as those damn silver things.
OLD GUYS UNITE!

So ping I am not the second oldest owner of a MSP at 33.
Woohoo!
Maybe I wont be the only one at a MSP rally that rembers the 80's.
AGR went from disco shoes, to a mullet, to middle America conservative, to naked old man driving his 270WHP MSP around the nursing home parking lot.
The last part speaks of the future of course.

Don't forget the nurse chasing him holding his soggy depends!

(nothing but love AGR! )

What happened to Michael Andretti at Indy?

His throttle linkage broke. He ended up 27th.

On the bright side; Tony Kanaan (his teammate) finished 3rd. So; Andretti Green Racing's Tony Kanaan is now leading the IRL Championshp.

Other's on AGR's team:

Dan Wheldon crashed, and his car flipped. He was okay.
Robbie Gordon finished 22nd.

Michael is now retired from driving; so now he will run his team.

His son, Marco will be in the big leagues in the next few years. He just finished up in Karts, and is now driving in the Pro Barber Dodge series.

 

[funnylittlman]

Cool! Thanks for the update..

I'm glad that Mario is ok though

I dunno about that...there have been some rather ahhh "unique" photos wondering around here..

Speaking of Mario Andretti; This is my wife and Mario at the U.S. Grand Prix in 2000 in Indianapolis.

Mario is essentially retired from driving. When he crashed on April 24th, he was testing a car for Michael. His car flipped 3 times when he struck debris from Kenny Brack's crash that occured in front of him. He was going over 220mph when the car lifted. It landed on it's wheels. Except for a scraped chin, he was fine.

Mario may race again if he gets a good offer for a LeMans ride. That is the one race, he hasn't won.

I like them and have been looking for a pair like that myself. I think they'd improve the look of the orange cars -- I agree with an earlier post that the red just doesn't look right with the orange.

Having said that, I wish somebody would make a "clear red" tail light (i.e. like the tail lights on the current Mustang). Now THOSE I really like. But this blackish one would be my 2nd choice. Get them and then post some pics so I can see how they look before I drop the coin myself!

 

[nate0123]

For those of you that haven't seen them, here's what I have. I'm pretty happy with them.
