OK, dont really care for this AT ALL, but thought I would post it as somebody out there might. Somebody brought it to my attention, so thought I would pass it along as I had not seen it anywhere before ............

FABULOUS! A really smart design curve! :smile: What'd they do?
Study the Mazda camps' retro-rip-off looks of the ricer-Honda crowd?

Ok.
I shouldn't be so.....

well, yeah....

Put those on and I'd swear you'll never hear the end of the "baby" PT Cruiser comments.

Seriously...that is so awful that I had to post again. I mean...I was even surprised that I could kinda get into the clear MINI tails...normally I don't like that look. But that's like a bad rendition of an Altezza light. What were they thinking?

Bad rendition of a Alteza ........ , it is like a drunken hangover headache sipping down a spagetti milkshake ! WOW, so bad I cant even imagine it was even made, but thought you guys would like something to pick on, it is so bad ! Even looks hand made, not sure who's, but like bad clamation !

at first I was kind-of frozen in my tracks, caught SO off guard I didn't know what to do. Now, I've come across a few options:

A) PUKE
B) be nice and say that "somebody might like them" [suckers!]
C) PUKE EVEN MORE
D) state that the design really is just a visual derivation of the original, but in a definite PT/Altezza kinda yukkie way.


[starts flipping thru pictures to reaffirm the coolness of the OEM lights...]
