Which tail mod should I try?

Post by Chiggles »

So I'm looking to change my tails in the spring/summer but I'm just not sure on which way to go with them. Now, not that this poll is intended to be a popularity contest, but the 2 styles I'm trying to decide between are both from members on this forum. On the one hand, Altezza's are a bit overdone now, but I'm thinking if I mod them a bit by prying off the lens cover and paint the signal corners amber (as pictured) as well as the trim sections around the lights to match the color of my ride it would turn out pretty nice. On the other hand, the custom ones that BoOdOg and Barry Clark have made are really unique, and I like how the diameters are larger than the the Altezza's. So like the poll question suggests, which style should I try? I've been getting opinions from just about everyone I know through friends, family, work, etc. and there hasn't been a clear definitive answer.... so far, out of all the people I've asked, it's split right down the middle pretty much, give or take 2 votes, so being how close that is, it really hasn't helped me decide, so I'd like to see what the community here thinks. If it helps, my current body color is the stock Creek Blue Mica.

BoOdOg's:

And with respect to BoOdOg, Barry Clark, and Precidian: AWESOME jobs you all have done. :2thumbsup: Keep up the good work! May your rides last forever!! :D Oh, and BoOdOg - I know my body color is the same as yours and all, and that even though I'm interested in trying out the same tail mod as you did, I'd like to say that I'm not trying to be a copycat on purpose, but that look is hawwwwt. :P As the saying goes, immitation is one of the best forms of flattery. 8)

Putting a sticker over the lights or spraypainting them is illigal in most places, wheras the altezzas are legal for the most part.
