Default First Gen Clear Tails

Hey guys,

So I'm shopping around for some clear tails for my first gen LS. There are a bunch being sold on eBay, but I remember seeing some from Japan that were much higher quality. The clear section and red section on those just looked a lot nicer and more modern. The eBay ones look kind of cheap to me. I think some guy was selling them in the classifieds a while back but I can't find the post anymore. Where do I go about getting a set of those?

This is what the eBay ones look like:



For some reason I remember seeing some somewhere that just looked a lot nicer. But thats the look I'm going for. Anyone know where to look or even what I'm talking about? Am I just confused?

I dont think there are different types. I'm pretty sure they are probably made at the same plants in China or the like... I've got the the ones from Luxury mods as well. They are the same as the ones on ebay. I believe.

Can I see pictures of how they look on your car? Your car is silver also correct?

I've heard that you can buy crystal/diamond effect tails. These are probably from Japan

Thanks a lot for the pics! Both the white and the silver cars really helped. I think I'll definitely get a set soon.

PSLS400... can you elaborate on that? Thanks

Are these the ones you were referring to, Suneet? VIP
I like these all clears better than the red/clear
