you don't want them. How dare you corrupt an rx-7 with aftermarket tails. Just go for S5 tails (1989+) If you go for anyhting other than OEM, then you should've bought a civic.

HAHA. You could find them on the back of a automatic V6 mustang, Or a 4 door automatic accord. Just look for the dragon graphics on the windshield and the mexican behind the wheel. Dumb bastard.

Ahh the token FC aftermarket tail light thread. They don't exist except for a few custom tails here and there. As for the LED's if anyone has seen the set i posted that I am working on I just found the perfect donor LED set for the project. I am currently working on getting six of them for the "s5 experiment"

hahaha................damn ricers.....what will be the benefit of the clear tails other than making the 7 look like any other stupid honda and 240sx out there.............there are NO clear tails other than custom ones made by retarded owners........here are pics of LEDs(which aren't as bad as altezzas but still a useless waste of time and money)
seriously guy either buy a honda and **** THAT up or leave the seven alone......this is the reason I dreaded the drifting fad....all the **** with riced out hondas think the 7 is another ricer-mobile...that needs gay mods all over it....
REMEMBER ALTEZZAS ONLY LOOK GOOD on ALTEZAS!!!!!!!!!!!

pointless is a wrong way to describe LEDs. They light to full brightness 68% faster than standard bulbs or in .45 seconds. Going 60 miles an hour that
s roughly 96 feet per second, compaired ot the 1.4 seconds of standard bulbs, that's approx 90 feet for the car behind you to nitice the brake lights are on, also
LEDs last longer, use less energy, and light colder. they are ahuge stepup, all you'd have to do to keep from the stock look would be to put 3 or 5 behind a rectanguler or circular (depending on S4 or S5 tails) piece of sheetmetal inside the tail light assembly and that way you still get the brightness and instant flash, and other benefits. So do some research before oy uduyb somehting "pointless" even if you don't like the way it looks. I wanted to be mean and flame in my first post an dI think my insult was mild as I respect this community. Oh and btw I'm getting all my side markers, turning signals, brake lights, and even the FTPs to house LEDs instead of conventional bulbs (all the little dots masked with thick distorting plastic filters to look conventional but gain the benefits)

I see some of you very "nice" people left me some very "kind" messages but, I also prefer stock or JDM tails on any import. I just found it weird that they were hard to find on such a (recently made) popular car. SO **** OFF ********!!!

Pretty pathetic guys...really...grow up...it's his car, and his right to do whatever he wants to it...

Recently made???? As in 20 years old.....
And yes I'm going to bash him for ruining the car that we all hold so dear and turning it into exactly what everyone else thinks they are, RICE. If you saw an RX-7 with Altezza tail lights in a parking lot you'd look at it and shake your head thinking "That dumbass, ruining a car that we work so hard on and love". At least thats what I'd say, the difference is I said it to him and not to myself.
Oh and thanks for the PM.....DICK
