Thanks for the pics artie, they look good. But they are slightly different then the ones I posted. Your turn signals are clear, the ones I posted have red turns signals.
Does it come with yellow bulbs for the turn signals or white?
I might have to consider picking up a set, they may look good.

Spike, that is a one off...got it for $160 and it's SCCA legal...guy here named mxv made it/had it made and sold it to me since he was building a cage.
Sam-mine have the red turn signales, I don't think they come with bulbs, you your own. I did put LED in my brake lights for some brightness, not a big difference, so it was a waste of $3.
Chris I thought Altezzas are chrome, these are not chrome.

"Im not a ricer, but" I do like the look of some aftermarket tails...
I tried something like these on 2 diff cars (350z & Mazda3) and was "eghh" bout both..
I promptly used night shades paint on BOTH, and happy but not completely satisfied...no matter ho wmuch I worked them, I couldnt get them glossy enough to be close to my liking...
I then found some vinyl overlays, and was THRILLED.
Had them on for about 2yrs per car, numerous rains/washes/lots of heat, etc...NO issue.
Just gotta take your time, trim them right, and work the heatgun/squigee right...
So I vote for vinyl...I'll be sanding the letters off and doing this to mine...
--make that 3diff cars...WIFE saw the Z and made me do it to her Black FX and was/is thrilled..
Here's where I get them, good guy, member on 350z forum i used to be on...you may/may not find cheaper...but I'll vouch for him and quality...i tore 1 of mine and he even hooked me with a replacement...
I didnt see anything miata specific, but i'm sure he can do 'em
Thats what the Z looked like with them to give u an idea...

I like that one with the black center piece...
They'd look good on a darker color car if you smoked them.
I've been searching for a dirt cheap set for a long time now to disassemble and build some LED modules for.. Nobody wants to give up a set for dirt. :(
Oh... and wannabe Bentley dodge 300 == teh gay.
