i know i already had this posted in image munipulation but i want to get this out as much as i can and get as much help as i can asap.
---alright guys, i orignaly had planned to do civic tail lights. I started to do some measuring and it is almost not possible. Its to drastic to the cavalier body lines.
--- For sure im going to mold the rear bumper and shave the trunk onto the car so keep that in mind
--- I have a whole box of L.E.D.'s that are like 2" high and 6" long. So I thought of incorporating that into the back end, maybe do a french plate.
---I really dont want to buy other tail lights for another car, I really want to do something different and unique with the lights
PLEASE EVERYONE GIVE ME IDEAS AND DRAWINGS ON WHAT TO DO. IM STARTING THIS PROJECT SOON AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO!!!!!!! GET CRAZY WITH STUFF (NO WIDEBODY). BUT MAYBE MOLD THE SPOILER, FRENCH PLATE? I HAVE NO IDEA, EVEN IF YOUR NOT GOOD AT PHOTO CHOPPING PLEASE AT LEAST GIVE AN OPINION.
THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!
heres the car now--

MINION - Sinbird was planning to make a tribal design on his widebody-CavFire with LED's. I think it would look cool. I'm sure he'd give you some tips. Or you could modify the stock tails to accept LED's (John Piparo style). I'm doing the latter, and moving the license plate to the trunk so it doesn't look so empty (it will look similar to the rear of a GTO).
ok just wondering if i read and understood this right... you want to mold the trunk to the car as in you dont want to be able to pop the trunk or even see the lines from the trunk? if this is the case i hope you are goign to be using it just for show!! because the body roll from the driving will end up cracking the molding you will use and the paint will look like @!#$ and some on an so forth. but sence your looking into new tail lights i would say look into the rx8's they have some sweet designs and seem to be rather close to the cavy tails.
^^ he has mentioned in previous posts that this car is for show
actually, with all of that work being put into the car, I would just not have tails. of course, u would not be able to drive it, but who cares, its a show car. I know I wouldnt be driving it and risk something happening to it, especially since the doors are molded, would have to leave the top down wherever u park.
LED's inside a stock blacked out housing and clear lens.
camaro one piece tail lights with the trunk chopped in half about where the lock is and the bottom half welded to the car so that it would open and close properly with 1 piece tail lights
got any pics of the LED lights? im looking to put some LED strips for tail lights in my car.

no s2000 lights..noooooooo only i can have em..lol
ur trunk doesnt sit flush, maybe you should fix that first
but for stuff to do, there is a kia around here that has one of those LED message boards in his trunk, that would be cool cuz then u can advertise on it at the shows and its not all that hard to do
my trunk didnt have a latch when that pic. was taken.
as far as l.e.d.s what i mean is this (what i had on my own car)----
