Don't jump on the 97+ bandwagon. 95-96 look best IMO.

Although your car truly pulls off 92-94 tails, I believe it's time to upgrade to 97-00.

Red, the 97+ might work better on your car because you are going for a more aggressive look. 95-96 is for a cleaner, more subtle look, just my thoughts. I love the 92's on your car anyway. I'm sure anything will look good.

lol your car has a full 97+ kit and your calling the 97+ tails the bandwagon lol..

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..

97+. It looks so much newer than the old outdated 92-94. Leave the 80s look behind

I agree with Shern, just look at how good those 95-96 tails look on his car.

cant go wrong w/97+ tails nor can you w/95+ tails but your tails look fine the way they sit currently, they flow very well with how your car is setup, if anything consider painting the orange part of the tails to red to mach completely, that way you can save couple bills and still have a different unique original look.
