Tail light dilema solved (Read 130 times)

Greg Serious Thumper Offline Molon Labe Posts: 1251 Southeast PA, uSA Gender:	Tail light dilema solved 02/02/13 at 16:10:31 A FB friend of mine from Brazil did a very cool mod for the rear lighting. I always disliked having the tail/brake light on the axle with the plate. Mounting it on the fender ruins the lines. This seems to be a great alternative.

Bot, I like that look of yours. I don't plan on doing what I posted. I just thought the execution was awesome and looked great with his fender choice. I like my rear fender. I lowered it about an inch and I think it looks awesome. I would love to get rid of the tail/brake light and convert my turn signals to tail/brake/turn. I have not been able to find red lenses though. I made a separate post asking for help with that. (http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?num=1359858327)

If you go this route you might want to put a layer of tape or 2 on the lenses before you take the mold of them for the outside part and the lip where it goes into the housing to account for the shrinkage of the plastic resin that you will use to cast your new lenses with.
