will 1993 Nissan Skyline tail lights fit inside the holes where the celica coupe tail lights came out of. if they fit im going to get sum to do the conversion but if they are to large... if they fit inside ill fill in whats left open with fiber glass..
here is what they look like

That's a pretty sweet idea!! I'm over here in Japan and I have alot of friends that have Skylines and they have spare ones they use for parts. If you don't already have the lights, I'll see what I can do about getting you some for REAL cheap.

Dang, that looks really nice...
That would be sweet if they fit in pretty well, i love the way that looks- It kinda compliments the front end with the headlights paired up the way they are. I think you should go for it man, get some dimensions or something, and let us know......hehehe >>

I think that those lights would look sweet in your car! If I were you I'd definitely go for it!

dude that is the tightest thing that I have ever seen. Is that really on your car or is it a cut and paste thing? If it is really on your car then you should do a write up. That's sweet, I agree with coomer, definitely do it.

the picture I posted is (odviously?) photochopped, they aren't actually on my car >> but thanks for the compliment...

and yeah, Oreo is right. the R32 lights aren't that exact size, but they're proportions should be spot on as I lifted them directly without scaling them.

actually man, it'd be better for the lights to be too big...that way, you can cut around and make it fit better, that way, you do not have to fill in all the void space, and risk all of the imperfections that would result from shoddy fiberglass/bondo work. just IMO that is...

I think it could be done. First, you'd probably have to heat the lights and pull off the outside clear plastic of the light. You could then probably mask off the lights and paint everything that's gray with a transparent black paint and then put the clear plastic back on. I'm not sure, but I'm guessing that that could be done.

hey ghost dog do u know do those rear lip kit was sold in europe somewhere ?

Ghost, the outer edges of the R32 tails are usually painted to match the exterior of the car, as shown in 0Re0's picture. The car that I lifted the tails off of for the photoshopped picture happened to be gunmetal, hence the gunmetal edges.

rlan214, that particular rear lip is only available through Hiro in Japan. However, their size is pretty small since they are basically two seperate rear defusers, so shipping should be fairly inexpensive.
