Just go all red on your stocks..or the 95's..97's are starting to get overplayed.

Your car looks great the way it is man. Your SC is one of the reasons I decided to keep mine looking more original. I agree with the other members that if you do anything just paint the yellow red. Just my two cents...

Go with 95 tails, they flow better with the 92-96 rear spoiler IMO.

Your car is amazing the way it is now, but I think the 97 lights would throw off the flow of your car. Imo it be best to go with some 95-96 and clear out the bottom

just my 2 cents though.

that's not a knock towards you at all either, your car has been a inspiration to me since my first SC, still one of my faves on here and you pull off the 95 tails great, i did half clears on my first 95 and loved it..

I still think 97+ tails would set off red phoenix's car though..

The thing is broski, his car actually is a '97-'00, he just simply retrofitted the '95-'96 tailights and '92-'96 OEM Spoiler from an older year model onto a newer year model.

I think you should mod the 95-96 light for your car. Knowing your track record as a DIY guy, you could come up with something that looks really good. Just my two cents.

Keep yours. The others are too flashy. Fully redify yours if anything.

Don't red out your originals, i think there'd be too much red going on and your taillights would "disappear". So in all honesty, keep it how it is, it looks amazing already, and saves you money.
