Hi Guys,

I have searched and searched but cannot find anything available in aftermarket tail lights for sportback. Do they exist or am I just wasting my time at this point???? There are so many options for sedan so surely there is something for sportback? Thanks!

Seriously! Thats terrible news... They could really use some nice smoked LED lights with the nice shiny black paint :) Oh well, guess they will show up on here when and if they do come around, thanks for letting us know

Yeah Bens right, there are none made for the sportback, i guess the market for them is alot smaller for them over the sedan so no companies seem interested in making them.

Such a shame, the black RA really is a great looking car in the sportback, just needs those black lights! Hopefully something will come out sooner rather than later? There are still quite a few sportbacks getting around now, at least enough for someone to hopefully decide its worth it!

All you can do right now is put in stealth indicator bulbs to clean it up a tiny bit. Don't have a link.

What I'd really like is some more spoiler options. Theres that 3 wing kit that was posted here somewhere (don't know if they've put that into production, doubt it) but I'd rather just a replacement for the stock one than one/ones in different places.

the ones that look chrome/clear but flash orange? supercheap, and any other car store will sell them :)

Don't forget the SB has been out for only about 18 months...

Sedans had to wait at least 2 years (from Japan/US Launch) before the first tail lights came out for us.

Didnt realise you also had to wait so long! Thanks for the tip, I guess I will be a little more patient and go down the tuning path for the time being then :)

Yeah they're all over the place (the bulbs).
You can so clearly see the orange bulb in the SB tail lights (haven't looked that close at sedans).

SB's won't ever have as much stuff. I expect at least one after market tail light set but idk if they'll be good enough for me to buy them :(
What might be better is when the facelift comes around (2012 I think?) that they'll redesign them. And then hopefully another place starts making them cheaper than mitsu :P

They defs needs to be... Blacker...

I hate tinted tail lights on stock lights, but ive seen tinted sportback tail lights on a black sport back...If its only a really light tint, it looks the business in my opinion :D
