I was boothed this past weekend at LACR Nopi Nationals for TYC. TYC told me that the lamps are due very out soon. Bad news for some they ended up scapping the carbon fiber ones becouse there not enongh material between the lamps to really show the carbonfiber off. Insted they are making clear, straight black, and gun metal.

They asked me to see what type (Clear, Black or Gun metal) most people have been waiting for. They do not want to short supply anyone, so please post up which lamp syle that you want.

Im also still working to get tyc to make a sport M type style head lamps hopefully they will do it.

can you find out whats up with the complaints about one of the lights not fitting exactly. Someone here said that sanding might be in order.

I showed them the problem and they took pics. They said they are looking into it. Its very minor though the fit is still decent no modifiying or condensation.

IMO I wouldn't sand the lamps down becouse it may mess the seals up. Thats up to you.

uhm if you ask them to make projectors, please have them NOT make them like APC lights, which use H3 fog light bulbs for their LOW BEAM! Ask and see if they can use like Hella H7 or H9 projectors, or better yet, OEM HID projectors from Valeo or Bosch or something (the projectors from the Audi S4 or A6).

I would like to see some photoshopped pics if someone could give me an idea of what the finish products would look like but I would be up for clear which i would tint or just black in the first place.

Clear....so long as there is no ugly black border surronding the outer edges like the APC's and Yangson's

Here is a photoshop job of the tails in black.

http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/comptonking/lst?.dir=/TYC+AD&.view=t.

Heres kinda how the clear will look. Take into account they are the TYC tails for the 1995-1999 eclipse but it will give you guy an idea on how it will look. http://www.genera.com/company/perfcar/Mitsubishi.htm

Wait is the OUTSIDE going to be black (like the Yangson tails), or will it be the INSIDE (like where its usually chrome like in the APC tails) with a clear OUTER lens? If it were the inside that is being colored (similar to the Supra tail lights) then I'd say black.

Well, myself, I would be interested in the clear ones only if they are completely clear lenses. No red, no meatballs, just a clear lens. I doubt it will happen though.

I'm waiting to see all of the options before I buy. I'm loving the red, but I think they other colors will be tight looking.

Clear or gunmetal. Just depends on what the pics look like and if they fix the gap or not.
