Post Lexus lights for a 951???

I think that the back end of the 944 looks a little dated and wondered whether people thought a set of lights like this might look good:

These are for a BMW E36 3 series but could anybody make something like this for the 944, Pannan??

altezza lights on a 944/951? um, the recent post about whether ricers and 951 owners have something in common may have a point.

in all seriousness, i think these would look horrible. perhaps 968 style monochrome tails would look nice.

I love how people call these cars "dated." As if adding some disgusting clear lights will suddenly make the car look modern. Those are gross.

Beautiful shapes dont get dated and in my opinion the 951 is one of the most beautiful and well put together car ever. The only thing to do on that car is rims and a euro rear bumper, maybe a 968 wing.

Front lip
Rims (three piece C2Turbo Cups)
968 TurboS rear wing
968/993 styled tear drop mirrors
euro rear bumper without eliminating the bottom diffuser

Other than that, yes!! An ageless design!!! <img border="0" alt="[thumbsup]" title="" src="graemlins/bigok.gif" />

Jaime,

For my car, I will be getting just the piece that includes the headlights, with standard turbo fenders in Gfk. The lights themselves are from a Citroen Zx.

The car in the picture is a 924 that the owner of the company modified for his own pleasure.
