+1 it looks great on silver. I'm sure blackouts would still probably be better on black, but clear tails definitely came out nicer than i thought they would!

looks like a profit opportunity people..

here's a quick chop so we can get an idea
Wow. Thanks for the 'shop! That looks pretty slick... I just think the huge chunk of red with the standard lenses looks out-of-place on the car if that's the only red, ya know?

How do you say rice back in the year 1998? Oh yeah, it was still rice then. This would be a crowning achievement, possibly the archetype of all rice accessories to come. (that and fart cans)

Can someone make it for the G35?

i know it's a love it or hate it look, but for all those who say it's ricey, the Lexus RX330, FX35/45 sport, Mercedes McLaren SLR, and some of the new Mazda SUV's have clear taillights.... Oh yea all the new mercury's have it, but i only like it on the milan. These are all clear with RED LED's inside and i think they look ok. Back in the day, the lights looked really white, not clear, and they had regular incandecent bulbs in it where people would skimp and buy cheap bulbs and i admit look horrible.... But i think the ALL clear with LED look, looks WAYYY better than altezza style lamps...

If you could do them clear with red LEDs, I think they wouldn't look too bad on a light colored car.

Of course I'll reserve all judgment until I see one with the actual mod.

I DISAGREE with you the Fuga is a beutiful car. Our G is a skyline 350gt there and the Fuga 450Gt is a Infiniti M45 here. Perfection showing off its best, that is an M45.

i don't know what you guys are hating on. why do you hate guys who drive "riced out" civics...for some people, it's not easy to afford a g35 and they enjoy modifying what they have and are proud of it. i guess you just want to be ***** who want everyone to stare at the ground when they're walking because they drive a fart canned, riced out civic. grow up

i personally do not have a problem with people modifying their cars as long as it's tasteful. hyundai, lamborghini, 'rustang, honda, harley, etc. what i have a problem with is a worthless car that they pour money into with expensive or cheap aftermarket parts making it look stupid, "fast" or ridiculously loud on the ears. when you put a giant wing on a ford taurus or old-a$$ tiburon, you're not saying "hey, i'm proud of my car.". it screams "look at me, i'm a complete douche!"
