EightFive: Do you live in the Hamptons on the Boulevard?

I thought I recongized your car and the background setting :) I just live down the street ;)

As for the topic.

Altezza = Official Sponser of Rice.

I don't like them. Instead, you could get some clear ones and use that candy red clear paint to make half of them red, or some other combination.
Here's a pic of what that'd look like on my car:

altezzas are the most nasty thing on trucks! there's a guy with a ram1500 on my block who has altezzas, everytime i walk by his truck, i just wanna grab a rock and start smashing!!!

the only tailights i like on trucks are the ram symbol outline ones, but you drive a GMC so that stops that idea

Altezzas on a Jimmy...my god...I think the rest of the thread summed it up with all the comments...

Oh, and have fun lowering a 4x4, you cant just go lower those things, its a pain in the ass for a 4X4 truck...not to mention hella $$$

Unless I'm judging it at a show, ppl can do whatever the hell they want to their own car, that's what this whole hobby is about as far as I'm concerned.
just cause alot of people think altezza's are 'ghey' doesn't mean shit to me. I don't have them on my car, but if i did, i certainly wouldn't take them off on account of everyone saying they are lame. If i did happen to like them, i would put em on cause they make me happy, not you.
I see alot of this sort of shit on here and it reminds of the junior high attitude when someone would say that a certain brand was 'old' or whatever and so everyone would just follow suit and not wear it anymore.:thumbsdow
if you like something, do it for yourself, not for the approval of others.

oh well, that's my rant for the day.

i would say i'd have to agree with Just_d16n. it's their own hobby, let them have their own fun. i know people with altezzas and they think they're cool looking - whatever floats your boat. i think they look gay, but if you like them, go for it.

Ben
06-27-2002, 06:30 PM
Meah, Although I agree with d-16, I still despise altezzas, and always will, just as someone is entitled to do as they wish to their car, I am entitled to have an opinion on what I feel looks good and what doesn't...and to me, altezzas look like ass, and are something we should be able to disinvent...

altezza's are sooo ugly. i just recently put stock tail lights on my car and i like them so much better.
but if you want them, get them.

i'm not trying to say that you can't have you're opinion Benny, that's exactly my point, that everyone has there own and shouldn't be looked down upon or made to feel like an outcast as a result of that opinion, that's all.
i'm not a fan of the lights either if the truth be known, but you won't catch me slamming other ppl's choices of what to do to their car, especially when this hobby costs so much $$.
like someone once said 'if it feels good, do it.'

If it takes so long to decide whether something looks good or not, it probably doesn't.

Oh, i wasn't demeaning your post at all Ry man, i merely used it to further my point about personal opinion, because I agreed with what you said about opinions:thumbsup:

I agree.. I used that on my tails and I love them. Makes the whole rear end look cleaner (I recently debadged the rear, which also helps).
