THAT looks Cool!

LOL if you manage to make them close to your rendering I think you might be able to sell a few sets to people on here!

 

[OLE PONY]

Looks sharp. Hope it works out!

That would kinda defeat the one off look he wants though:dodgy:

Came up with a quick render...now all I need to do is figure out how to make real ones if I could make them close to my render I think they'd look pretty badass!!!

Oh that's to cool. You need to make these tail lights happen.

have you looked at Torino Tail lights like these? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-1970-Ford-Torino-Tail-Lights-/140578499993

I made some revisions and came up with a more detailed rendering. the first is a pic of the '13 just for reference. I've looked into a few options for making these, from possibly molding them myself, to having them CNC'd by a shop. I haven't really figured out what it's gonna cost me yet, but I definitely need to figure out a way to make these happen! I think it would be a significant improvement over stock.

 

[OLE PONY]

The real one should look sharp when your done!

 

[Mister 4x4]

I'm really diggin' those. They would look absolutely SICK on an all-black car like that.

How do you plan on handling the 'back-up' lights?

 

[droptop73]

Those lights are real cool.

You gotta keep us posted on the progress of custom molded tail lights...you may be on to something good

I need to figure out how the '13 does the back-ups...I thought of that too because the back-up's on the '10-'12's are in between the three red bars??? I'm thinking it may have something to do with the LED's...may be different color LED's behind the lens:huh::huh:


Just out of curiosity...What kind of interest would I have in these if I am able to outsource the manufacture of them and offer them at a reasonable price???

I'm not sure how the '13 does it but you could run a row of red leds then white and just alternate them. If you do get led tail/brake lights you might want to look into getting a pulse width modulator for the tail lights. http://www.ledmarkers.com/power.html

Also check out the 4 pin superflux leds, like these

Oh and check out http://www.hidplanet.com/forums/ They have a lot of cool led retrofits and other stuff. They also talk about projector headlight retrofits as well.

The back up lights are in the middle.You can't see them unless their on.

 

[Obsidian11]

Anybody in if I can get these manufactured???
