Lexus Style

So, what's all this Mumbo Jumbo about the Lexus Style or also called "Euro Style Taillights"?

While it appears funny that they are called Euro Style, keeping in mind that not a single European vehicle uses this design, this design, also referred to as "Altezza Design" has created a real wave. Nowadays, you'll find clear chrome design rear lamps for any car. No matter whether it's your supercharged Nissan Skyline or your BMW 7 series.

But: do people still want this kind of design? Or is it still the most innovative design on the market?

Due to professional reasons, I'd like to know, whether people still want more of these lamps or rather something different.
What's your favorite? And what do you dislike most?

Stupid, useless, over-used, a ricer mod and most are of poor quality. The only thing worse then seeing Altezza lights on a Civic is seeing S2000 lights on a Civic.

ot: i agree with you mav, this is not to bash on american's taste in cars, and i think this also applies here in the Philippines and everywhere else..for example, the movie fast and the furious, they did have tons of tricked out cars..but the lexus lamps and "conversions" (ex. s2k taillamps on civics) din't really help the movie out...some of the cars shown were really "over-dressed" if i may say. if that is your s2k on your sig then i am droling on your car right now..simple, good clean set up..no flaming stickers on the side..now that looks good without even trying..we have the same here in P.I, people putting honda parts on toyotas and alike..well cant hate the industry for selling those..as will smith said, "Hate the player, not the Game.." or was it the other way around.."dont hate the player, hate the game" well you get my point
