Default New taillights

Alright, so we put new taillight covers on the stang. My dad came up with the design and had them made at his job, then he applied them to the taillights. They are made out of vinyl. Tell me what you guys think of them.







When the lights are lit up, it shines thru the vinyl and you can't really see the horse, but can see it pretty clear in the day light.

There is a volvo in the mustang section because he did a 5.0 conversion in it. I believe he is part of the Mustang club here in Pittsburgh. This was at the vintage grand prix in Pittsburgh this past weekend. It's the world's largest vintage street course and always has a large turnout. We went down both sat and sunday for the races. This is the same event that we won the mustang at 2 years ago.

Thanks for the comments. I did have the taillights tinted. Think it would look better with the main lights tinted and keep the "GT" 3rd brake light?

Sorry, I misread what you were saying GTstang. The two circle stickers came on the car when we got it. They are special edition stickers and we just never really got around to taking them off yet. We may be doing so soon tho. The vinyl is white perforated vinyl with black printed around the horse. I know it's kind of hard to tell in the pics that it is black. We are planning on striping it soon, so the stickers would be coming off.

No, too busy looking. I don't know... It might work if they were black. I can't say much, I've got stickers on my taillights. Speaking of which, I suppose I'll start my own taillight thread... I'll have to take better pics first.
