like what? I'm sure I can pull of something with sequentials, or perhaps four tal rectangles across rather than the four quandrants we have on S4's stock. Obviously I'll post picsof my prototypes, and my quantity:price curve.

Get a S5. The seats are mounted lower. There is A LOT more headroom in my 90 than in my friends 88 GXL.

The seats mount the same way.

S4 GXLs have a bunch of padding in the seats that makes them sit higher. Plus the drivers side has a tilt on it.

No sharp angles in the taillights.

Use as many curves as possible .. see if you can accent the FC's curves. Make it look a bit more modern.

As for my ideas, just put some pics up and see if we like :P

My idea would be to have something resembling modern taillights. Large main brake light and running lights. smaller turn signal lights, and even smaller backup lights.

I guess IMO i like to see more red in the light, the yellow and white should be hidden and as unnoticeable as possible.


As for market and price, if you can price them at what your average set of euros can sell for which is ~$100 then they will sell well.

I'll still buy even at $150. But then again, im pretty desperate for some different taillights, and im just not a big enough fan of S5's to justify $250 for them.
