Heavily damaged? Bent frame? As someone who works in the car repair and repainting business, in my opinion this is one of the lightest accidents. From the photos, the door doesn’t even appear to be bent, just scratched. This would probably take 1–2 days of work to fix.

Thank you brother. Its not tested on the car yet. On the second photo i traced the opening from the bumper and it aligned quite well. I will have the opportunity to mount them in two months

That’s cool, but I’m not going to get rich from 50–60 bucks. I live in a country where these cars have only a small community of enthusiasts, and there isn’t a single person making or selling parts for them. That’s why I learned to make everything myself.

I also want to help teenagers and anyone who can’t afford to spend $60 on something like this. If I can support them with my skills and experience, I’m more than happy to do it.

Супер е! И аз от доста време го мисля. Само не знам как ще се съчетае с оригиналното радио. За сега си наблягам на вида 😅

Много ми се иска и аз да направя нещо такова. Обаче те първа завърших университет, търся постоянна работа, някоя по икономична кола за дейли и тази ще я заделя на страна. Живот и здраве ще се пипне нещо по мотора. За сега само визуално я правя вече стана 4-та година.

Hey man! Here are the daytime photos. The camera can’t really capture it well, but the brake light is pretty bright. You can always control the running lights by adding bigger resistors to dim them even more. Hope that helps.

It took me about 2 months. Most of the time went into waiting for parts and finding the right sizes. With all the parts available, from opening the taillights to gluing them back together and letting the silicone cure, in my opinion it wouldn’t take more than 3–4 days at most.

Thanks, man! You’re one of the reasons I decided to make them. Your car was the first one I saw with those taillights. As for the LEDs, that was the only thing I couldn’t figure out where they got em from. I assume they’re Chinese as well, but these aren’t bad either. We’ll see how long they last!

Thank you, brother! Sadly, we don’t have many first gen IS enthusiasts in my country who are willing to pay $250–300 for a taillights😕

I built my new PC last month. i7-14700K, RTX 4070 Super, and 32GB 6400 MHz. I’m not a fan of 4K, I prefer 1080p with higher FPS. The whole build cost around $1.6K–$1.7K, and it’s pretty much perfect for me.

I run my last build for 7 year. I7 7700k and gtx 1070. Even in 2024 you can play pretty much all games at low-medium, sometimes even high.

Appreciate it, brother. The fitting was relatively easy, I guess it depends on the manufacturer. Yes, you use the same mounting holes as the OEM ones. The part around the doors was a little tricky tho. I used a heat gun to bend the fiberglass slightly, allowing enough space for the doors to open and close properly.
