@brz.zzz are you gonna incorporate the lenses to stay colored even if the car is off...? Say like the signal light lens circle stays amber even when then the car is off, the reverse is still colored white when off, and same for the brake lights...? If so, then i'll consider it because it'll give a stronger MKIV vibe lol

I get that the circular lights pay homage to the a80 but the design clashes with the a90's body lines; its just seems out of place. I think all these callbacks, the mk4 wing and then this taillight, are trying too hard. Lets face it, this car wasn't meant to be a supra. Toyota just wanted to cash in on the supra name so they pasted it on this car. Don't get me wrong, I like the car for what it is mechanically and aesthetically; I just honestly dont care about its namesake. I wish to god they just called it the FT1 instead so that it didn't have to be burden by nostalgia.

Tiny circles, giant negative space in the rest of the housing.... What... Lol
Yeah I think the size of the circles are working against it. The halos / outer rings when not lit up in the pic make them look even smaller...might be better without it altogether. Outer turn signal def too small too. Maybe leave off reverse lights and only have 2 red brake, and one orange turn so they're bigger, and do gray housing like 98 style mkiv?

Mk4 style tail lights with MkV body lines. Just a quick mockup I made in illustrator.
