Those lancer clear lights cost anywhere between Rs.5k to Rs.7K (for a pair) + shipping charges, depending on quality.
I dont know if they are available in India or no (you'll have to check)!! but you can get them from abroad or through internet,If you buy through net, check for lower prices keeping quality in mind.

1st I want to know is the base design nice,then I can add anything I want.
Till now only a few people have said its nice,I need some more suggesston ,then only I will give some time to it.

As i have designed it for production purpose,I wanted the car to look good without those add ons.(which I think is quiet OK)
Next this design will feature an OEM sports version,with:- sporty alloys,spoiler,side and bumper skirts.

Guys is it possible to send this idea to Maruti???

islero · 16th April 2006, 21:12

Very much possible.

In fact, I think some Maruti people might be checking this out aldready, seeing as auto companies have taken tips form tbhp threads before!!!

SRK · 16th April 2006, 21:18

Yes, I had read somewhere that some auto companies dont like the way we speak the truth about their product.

Nice car,but I dont like the tailgate,reminds me of the daewoo cielo.

Those are kind of lights i was talking about,but they are not of baleno's. They belong to Toyota Tercel (that means you still need to do some metal work.),but looks quiet nice.

mclaren1885 · 17th April 2006, 09:46

Like these tail lamps a lot .. No issues with the metal work .. SRK , could u give us a shopped view with these lights ??

So called "Lexus lights".. becoz they first appeared on the Lexus. Do a google and u get plenty of hits.. but none for Baleno :(.

Mclaren I think you need some little metal work with the tailgate and quarter panel,otherwise they are nice.I'll give the photoshoped version after sometime as right now i am busy.Hope you can waitt

And how about this VW lights

What do you guys think.I think these kinds of lights may be expensive, but will be better than to use Lancer lights

Beeman · 18th April 2006, 12:03

i think any kind of tail lilght will need plenty of metal work especially if you want a neat and snug fit. In this case i think even the rear hatch will require some re-adjusting and metal work

HotChillyPepper · 18th April 2006, 16:31

Guys,
What about trying out Fiesta Tail lamps?
