they are stock tail lamps,the only difference is that they have been given the smoked out look.for more information on smoked out taillamps you can search the forum.
the front looks pretty decent and not over the top.though i dont like the rims and the exhaust pipes.

Overall look is pretty nice. Like hellspawn said not over the top. The rims dont like them and the exhaust pipes should have been nicely chromed, and maybe just a tad bit shorter.......they are sticking out too much.

Looks quite bad IMO. 4 exhausts?? It's an Optra not a Lambo!

Dunno why, but i kinda liked the look of the car....
At first glance, made me think it resembled the Chevy Caprice SS Limited version.

white optra - nice but not right

its a simple mod but i think it gives the car a lot more character..... yes agreed the 4 exhaust thingy is pushing it but otherwise.... its neat... i dont specially hate the alloys but they arent too cool either.

the white optra looks good alright but somehow i find it hard to place an optra as a sporty car..... its a lot more elegant in a beefy sorta way.... its got a lot more character than oomph!!

well i beg to differ,the optra has classy looks with understated lines.and the white optra spoils that executive image.

Wow !! the white optra looks really hot and those alloys are looking so good on them. Probably the same alloys on a white fiesta would also look cool

at last somebody gave the optra a different look. it was getting kind of monotonous.

I dunno why anyone in right mind would put in such ultra low profile tyres on his car in india. That would have screwed the ride quality and i dont think suspension would last either and it aint making the car look that good either!

I now believe optras can also look good with bodykits and it does suit the car
