A few minutes ago I was doing a search and came across an old post about the SR taillights.
I was looking at the car and saw this kinda interesting rear end..



Anyone knows what kind this is and if still avaible?

that would be the proto rear bumper. it's a widebody kit for the rd1. it's now longer produced 02.gif . but it is a awsome kit. here's some pics.

Nope, it's not the proto. Doesn't look like it at all. The proto kit was a full CUSTOM kit you had to have put on BY PROTO. They had wide fenders and everything.

The kit rear you are looking at is actually a rear lip. I just pulled one off of my wife's 1997 Tib, it's the old EVO Rear Lip.

Look for it from Blacktibs and Flyrydes soon.

That's a nice kit except for the hideous "evo" lights. Evo fronts look good on some cars. Rd1's aren't one of them imo.

It could also be a MIRA rear end...
Here's steve's old bumper:


And from the Old SR (I think it was) site
