JDM Style Tail lights 260z/280z group buy

[sblake01]

I didn't speak of anything but interest.

I was trying to do a double quote but i dont think that works here. I was just chiming in to what you guys was saying.

Yes it does work here (the double quote). But as far as the JDM vs Euro thing, the S30 in Japan had the amber in the tail lights. People may refer to them as 'Euro' but they're home market tail lights. Yours with the clear in the lenses are just 'JDM style'. I hope you get the people you need to get them done, but they're just not to my taste.

Showing pics of a z31 isnt helping eather.

JDM lenses = Euro lenses.

Clear lenses = Aftermarket

These lenses have never been produced for 260z/280z's. So i dont have a picture. Im having them custom made from Klearz. I send in my donor lenses and she replicates them clear.

*Update*

Ive got 20 people.

What's involved in mounting those? Will they fit the cutouts in a 280Z, and will the bolt holes match?

thxZ

I wonder how much testing will be done on those as far as fitment, leakage etc. I've seen those kind of aftermarket lights on the 'rice' cars.....filled with water! I guess it really doesn't matter. He's got his 20 people and I'm not interested in them anyway.

My impression is that the tail light housing will stay stock and the only custom part will be the clear lens, so it should fit the original tail light cutouts and bolt holes should align...As for the leakage issue, silicone should do the trick... We'll see how it goes!

The reason I might be interested in lenses likethat is the safety of having the yellow turn signal lenses. I'm concerened with the newer drivers, that they would understand what the flashing yellow light on the rear corner is, and that flashing red brake lamp might just mean that your lamp is malfunctioning.

OTOH, the red lenses are more correct for the antique cars.

Tomohawk, these lenses will be clear in that area not yellow (amber). Unless you're planning to put amber bulbs in them.......

It will have red lens on the top, clear lens on the bottom, and clear reverse lights.
