Whats going on with car manufacturers and putting altezza lights on all their cars??? First their is Lexus(which they did it first so its sorta ok) then ford with the Lighting(these trucks look so nasty now) and today I went to a nissan dealership and the new Maximas SE have some funky lights. Instead of having the black around the lights they made them clear. They look so nasty. Why are they doing this to cars?

I wonder when they will start making aftermarket tail lights for these cars? I wonder what theyll look like.

The new aftermarket taillights will be all RED or RED/AMBER. Go figure!!!

your forgot the new Impreza (what were they thinking??)

and the newer version of my car, the E46 Compact also had terrible tail lights

before the facelift




after the facelift




tbh, I really think BMW tends to bring new cars on the market with awful looking front and tail lights first, then replacing them with better looking ones in a facelift (mostly includes better engines and interieur quality)

happened with the all the E36, E46, E9x, E60, E65, E39......go figure. pre facelifts are ugly, facelifts mostly decent looking.



EDIT:

E46 Compact is an ugly car overall, so no matter what taillights are in it still looks like shit lol

god damn spammers!!!


btw op, your comment of it "being sorta ok" is fucking retarded. theyre called altezza tails because they came on the toyota altezza (lexus is) first. that doesnt make it "sorta ok"
