Sequential Tail Lights......Sweet or Ricer?


Hey guys,

I was looking at some sequential tail lights, such as the ones available at Meter4it Engineering , Sequential / Chase taillights for Ford Mustang, and I was wondering what everyones opinion was...... too ricer looking? or would they look cool? I know I shouldnt care what anyone else thinks, but I think everyone cares a little bit, whether they admit it or not.

Let me know yalls thoughts :-)
John

That's for ricer and kids. Doesn't it seem like a muscle car should have that. You want to impress some one...rev your engine, do a burn out, race them and all of the above.

I hate rice as much as the next American Muscle Car owner, but I think the sequential tail lights look pretty nice, if done right.

What I don't like is those clear, stupid looking lights that every ricer puts on their cars. I think some of the newer ones even come from the factory like that.

I think they look awesome the old school cougars had them and the shelbys plus the new GT500 too. If anything I think its a touch of retro style just like the bullitt wheels or even the mach 1 grill delete

mutabi, i say if you like them, get them. it's a nice mod, good learning experience, and it looks nice to boot. don't let the half-witted attempts at humor from those closed-minded members bother you.

im not a big fan of them, but if i saw a mustang with them on I wouldn't be like WTF did you do to your car? I think you can put that money to something else though. But hey if you like them Go for it.
