Don't get alphards I hate them!
Fat fives look so classy and the fitment is spot on
My plan if I got some was to polish them, seen them on a black mk5 and looked sweet

Park on a very busy highstreet for work and fear a polished wheel effect could draw too much attention had some idiot drive into the side not long ago

Bit Of An Update:
Currently working on the Skyline/quad rear light Mod, bought a spare set of rear lights to work on but one of the lenses was damaged so waiting on a replacement. But i did manage to take them all apart which is a bit fiddly first time round i know i will take them apart easier next time. Going for LED rings in the main and the inner tailgate lamps that way i can have the same colour match inners and outers, also going to have the inners as indicators but still keeping the fog and reverse lights in essence having LED rings to emit the amber colour needed and the normal bulbs emitting reverse and fog (will have to be a red LED).
Also decided i will paint the inner panel matt black so they can look like R32 one but with a bit of a difference as ive painted most of the inner panel.
Main ones stripped
Inner
Outers can be stripped further if you want to removing the chrome backing to paint
Started masking the parts i dont want painting, dont think the r32 ones are painted around the red ring could be wrong but thats how it looks to me.
Sanded down ready for paint
You will notice im missing a passenger side inner thats because the one i bought was damaged. if someone wants to donate please feel free :grin:
Just a trial fit need to clean the backing plate and remove the excess glue and lighting.

Think they look a little darker than R32 ones
Will update more when the rings get here and the other lights ive ordered. Thanks
