Hey guys,
I got some altezzas from a mate, and i'm not sure on them. Usually i hate them and think they look cheap but on the black they seem to look alright. I can't decide what looks better, the stocko lights or the altezzas..
Any thoughts?

i rekon they both look good, but the stock ones i think give the car a more classy look where as the other ones give it a sporty look. thats just my opinion. i wuld leave the stock ones.

Whilst it is up to you, they do sort of look decent, it goes with the lowered suspension and large wheels in making the car look more menacing. Having said that, I like the stock ones better.

They don't look all that bad actully, never really like them but black seems to be the only colour they go with, however my personal choice of lights on a BA would be to change them to BF one

I think being a black car you can get away with that...I rekon they look s**t on any other colour. But black suits it. I voted altezza.

EF/ELs are in the same boat...They look good on a silver car s**t on others.

Another vote for the altezzas, they look 100% better than the stock BA lights.

I don't think i'll put it on if the altezzas are staying, it'd look too cluttered and tacky. I'm thinking about a different set of rims though that would go very nicely with the chrome garnish.
