    Group Buy: Quad LED tail lights rear finish panel for NA 90-97!!!

    Hey!

    We finally have all the info to start the group buy!

    This rear finish panel replaces both your plastic rear panel AND both tail lights. The LED tail lights are CE certified and makes your Miata visible in the traffic again. The light output is really amazing compared to the original lights. They go very well with the round rear of the original Miata, the NA.

    Specifications:

    - Fiberglass or 3K Carbon Fibre 1x1 twill (Made in Japan)
    - 240g+450g Carbon Fibre/Carbon Kevlar manufactured using vacuum bag
    - 45 degree weaving
    - Anti-UV gloss clear coating for a long lasting shine and protection
    - 4 LED tail lights with tail/stop/reverse for the inner lights and tail/stop/direction for the outer lights
    - 100% plug and play (lights are already wired and with the connector that attaches to the OEM Mazda connector)
    - Very easy to replace yourself (30 minutes job max)

    Available in Fiberglass (FRP), Carbon Fiber (CF) and Carbon Kevlar (CK).

    SPECIAL PRICE FROM 16th to 31st of July!!!

    399 USD shipped for fiberglass and 599 USD shipped for carbon fiber/carbon kevlar!!!


    For this price you will receive:

    - 1x fiberglass/carbon fiber panel
    - 4x units LED tail lights
    - 2x wiring and connectors (plug and play)
    - 1 x CarbonMiata sticker

    There will be no minimum of buyers. You can just follow the link and buy the panel on the website directly. We already started to manufacture them but it will take from 10 up to 30 days to produce them so basically it will be first paid first serve. I will put the list here so that you can follow in which position you are!

    Are the lights you use the same size as the GV Porter Cab lights or the 76 Corvette lights?

    I meant to measure them when they were out but that task escaped me since i was on a time crunch trying to get it together and the photoshoot done.

    As far as the taillight manufacturer they definitely didn't say Nissan any where but to me look like lights you would get off a website for multi purpose lights but obviously not sure. I do know they are bright and look great! Although difficult to capture on video....

    When the group buy is closed, the regular price should be around 449 USD + 50 USD shipping for fiberglass and 649 USD + 50 USD shipping for carbon fiber/carbon kevlar.

    Our LED lights are 12.2 cm / 4.8 inches diameter. They are not GTR lights (I wish!). I looked everywhere and found this supplier which accepted to let me buy a smaller quantity. I think they look great and have a very good quality/price ratio. Ideally I wanted to use Lotus Elise lights but they are so expensive (around 180 USD/unit IIRC).

    I may be biased but IMHO this is by the most cost effective off the shelf pnp, taillight/taillight panel combination, option there is hands down.

    Although some are not keen on the leds, there is good reason the majority of major car manufacturers are using leds on most of their line ups: leds vs traditional bulbs- faster illumination, brighter illumination, less power draw, less generated heat, longer life/more hours. I think the taillight selection was an excellent choice on the part of Marc/Carbon Miata.

    These look good.
    Is your 'regular' carbon price listed above correct? Its the same as the GB price.
