Hey i got these tails handed to me free, so i figured nawzum this is what i'm using for my taillight swap
could you give me a preview of what it would look like?
i also wanted to see what it would look like with the prostock spoiler, or any spoiler for that matter, but the pics i found didnt show me much. you guys can chop somethin up if you wouldnt mind
heres a really quick chop, did it at work, if you need me to, I can clean it up a little when I get some time, should give you some idea though
interesting, if i go out and get a pic of the car with the BC2 bumper on would you re-do it?
yeah, for sure! It will give me a chance to clean it all up a bit. Just send me a pic to my email - matt_a_19@hotmail.com
Are those the actual size that the taillights would be on a cavy though? Probly be a pain in the ass to mold the trunk to the shape of the lights, since I don't think you'd be cutting them in 2.
it will be interesting, the whole end will practically be redone, we do have a donor trunklid though, so that will go under the knife first, then we'll go from there
sorry it took so long, i finally found the @!#$in USB cable for the camera
here ya go, should kinda give you an idea, kinda crappy, but it should do
thats awesome, i appreciate it man...
anybody else wanna do some tweaking to it?
I'll try when I get home, you're planning on molding the trunk around the lights right?
yezzur
and then a pro stock spoiler
Nice, now get rid of the original cavy trunk lines under the taillights and just continue the new trunk line off the inner sides of the taillights.
haha that is awesome.
i agree with decepti cav, i wanna see that shiz with the bumper molded and the cavy lines under the tails removed.
larry, you rule. i'm definetly considering moving the license plate now, that rear bumper looks 100 times better like that.
again, thanks! keep going!
Should tilt the licene plate too or something, just for the hell of it.
There ya go, I moved the lines below the tails to the inner edge. Not the best, but oh well.
thats some excellent photoshopping. I am impressed

if i can find a good pic of the wrx tails it would look sooo much better plus i was half asleep doing this i never thought of matching the trunk lines
but i think the best way to pull the lights off with your car is to do a wide body to match the tails like on the wrx
yeah we have plans for that, it's gonna be hard widebodying a 4 door sunfire.
the problem will be having time to do it, i go to school during the week and work on the weekends so for now it's my only form of transportation, unfortunately i cant afford a 2nd car's insurance with the bills i have now.
any suggestions on how i should start? i have a donor trunk lid.
well i would get the tails and every thing u need.
as for a wide body this is not a joke get alot of card board and druck tape make it the way u want them put a layer of duck tape on the hole thing and lay fiber glass down let it dry and pull it off theres your widebody lol
i have the tails, just no wiring or brackets to hold them in, so everything will have to be custom
haha duct tape and cardboard? i think that would take my respect level to a negative area
i didn't say to leave them on the car there just templates
then i really didnt follow what you were saying very well, sorry.
could you maybe give a few more details?
make the widebody out of cardboard then rapp it with ducktape *fiberglass don't stick to the back of the duck tape* lay the fiberglass when it hardnes put it off sand it fix some of the spots with tiger hair or kitty hard then sand some more then use a filler and there ya go your widebody
