Even Condeleeza says this thread is rice. theres a reason we called it rice three years ago. Theres a reason we'll call it rice now. None the less, there have been pictureso f them painted... looks like **** imo though-- good way to trash/waste a decent pair of rare s5 tails

how is that less rice than painting S5 lights. All you're doing is painting the part that doesnt light up in both applications. I'm not asking to be an *******, im genuinly curious as to why people like this and dislike the other.

i have this feference book on the fc (it was published in '85) and its mostly about its history and planning but it also has lots of info on other rotary cars and rotaries in general. but one of the original ideas was to have lights that (if S5's exited) look like your "thunderchicken" tail lights. they wanted it to resemble taillights of the r100.
