i was on the freeway and saw it pass me on the other side. looks widebody but could just be fender flares. he painted it baby blue and i saw the g35 tails when he passed. looks like he just finished it so ill be seeing it around more im sure. so hopefully get some pics of it.
the tailights look like they flowed really good for some reason

I remember i was visiting my friend in Tempe and we saw that thing on the highway. I thought it looked good other than it was unpainted when i saw it.

I'm wondering how much modification it needs to fit that thing....
I always thought that stock taillight on Celica feels little dingky....
Now it looks well balanced in the rear.... More I look at it I like it more...
Even from side view.. it looks nice....

I wonder how well those would look with an APR Widebody kit. Take widebody, those tails, maybe lengthen the car a few inches, balance the front with new rear, give it rear drive or al drive, and a 3S-GTE, and I'd lay down the R&D costs to make it the 8th Gen.

I think it would look awesome on an APR widebodied Celica, since the tails are very wide to begin with. :)

I don't know if I like em or not. I guess they are okay. I wouldn't pay for the mod but if I got it for free I'd take it so I guess I like it but not enough to want to get it.

One thing that I really like them is that it comes with LED lighting.... those are the big plus on tail light these days....

Yeah, you're telling me. I ran a search on google and discovered that a company named Euro Star makes aftermarket LED taillights for many cars, but none for Celica's. A lot of the tails they make look OEM style too, which is a big plus in my book. I really wish they would make a set for us.

I'm surprised you haven't done an LED conversion on the stock tails yet Dooly. I thought you would have rigged a circuit board in there somehow. ;)

Yeah all the luxury sedans/coupes now have LED tails, which looks really cool. I really like the look of the 3-series led tails /w clear look. Wish those aftermarket guys come out with some for our Celis!

The green one is from Guam. The baby blue one is from Arizona, right.

indeed, the G35 coupe tail light conversion is very nice.

I quit modding the Celica for long time....
I went back to stock... even took off the CF hood and TE-37, Veilside exhaust.. etc...
Couple month ago.. friend of mine just bought a 05 RSX-S.... that inspired me to go back on modding and working on more LED ideas and since RJ is stop making gauges.... so I might just pick it from here....
If I do LED for my tail light... it's gona be ghetto job....
First of all I don't have money to make it like OEM type... so it's just gona be simple PCB with bunch of LEDs on it...
Now I"m thinking about making PCB for the AC control.... I got a problem that draws up the circuit board and this company can print and make them to your specification.......

I would shave off the trunk handle and make it smooth across and that would finish it off perfectly.

Well that explains why I haven't seen you post since you ran a GB on those LED turnsignals for the gauge cluster. That was a year ago at least. Glad to see you're back.

Can you have the AC LED circuitboard mass produced for us too? I was thinking about using a PCB for the OEM tails too, but I decided it wasn't worth the effort. Especially if there's a possibility this company starts to make their LED tails for us.

As long as I can prototype the circuit board... mass producing them isn't hard.. since there are alot company that makes them to your specification..
It needs to have good designe and simple as possible to make it low cost to mass produce them.....

For the tail.. if you really want to make it simple.. just drill some hole on the flector part.. and start plug in the LEDs... and wire them all togther... :)

Yeah I've seen them. I was hoping they would make a set for our car too since they've made so many versions of the standard tail for us, but I don't see any "coming soon" descriptions anywhere.

we need to make the companies aware of our interest then maybe we can have our LED taillights. That would be sweet.

He used the coupe's tails.

The sedan's have a slightly different shape and is 4 pieces altogether, whereas the coupe is 2.
