ya, i know someone who did. i used to work with him and he had bought it off a guy that did all the work. it was a white mx-3 ze in ottawa. it involved a lot of fiberglassing to get it to look good. not sure what original fitment was like.

To be honest I don't think it looks all that great. Maybe its just me, though I am kind of tired of seeing all the aftermarket lights (the ones with the round lenses in them). They suit the car's shape, i think its the yellow turn signal that looks out of place.

Considering that the Mx-3 has a supra-like shape, the tail lights do suite our cars, they don't look half bad

I dont really like the look, they dont seem to "fit" the bodyshape. But then again, every one has their own opinion.

yea my car looks the same to the one on car domain its not that hard its all metal i didnt do all that much bondo work i wanted it to be all metal. I think they look great in the mx-3. becuse the supra style light for the cars i dont like im not a fan of the wrap around lights.

i personally think its not worth the hassle thats just my opinion. I like the look of out aftermarket black alteezaas. I get compliments everywhere and they say it looks like supra lights lol they dont know its an mx3 of course they dont thinkmits a supra..we got an mx3..why would i want it to look like a supra? its like when a guy with a 4 cyl slow eclipse puts supra lights ..what for. Before anyone yells at me iuts just my opinion. On the other hand i give you props for doing that hard work. Even if its not as hard as other mods u still got it going on there with your car :)
