Taniguchi's S15 light emblem?

[dookiedang]

Does anyone know whats the emblem on taniguchi's s15 headlight? where it suppose to say SILVIA but im guessing when he repainted it he put something else. I wanna know cause im planning on repainting my S15 headlights from Silver housing to BLK housing. since they are factory HID's i dont wanna get rid of them so i just wanna repaint them. plus if taniguchi's light got silvia on it then it would be better for me so i can still keep it that OEM look.

here are some pics. if anyone got anymore clearer more visible pics of his s15 then feel free to post.

idk i'm sober and i think it looks like stock S15 head lights w/
painted housing
clearer light cover

[S14DB]

Silvia is in the Glass part not the Housing. So Repainting the housing would not cover up the emblem.

[dookiedang]

oh..ok thats all i needed to know. always thought that the silvia emblem is on the light by the way it reflect on the light. but now i know that its on the glass. thanks!

[chuy]

it use to have Vertex on them as well

[tangch]

They have the letters "NOB" on them where the Silvia was. Suppose to stand for no one better or first three letter of his first name.
You can find out how the NOB looks like in the HKS website.

wrong. the silvia logo is part of the bezel, not part of the lensing.

typically, repainting the bezel a different color will eliminate the silvia logo unless you spend the time to mask and retain the logo like we do.

cause i just had a s15 conversion done on my car and its still in the body shop. i only had a glance at them since it was already at the body shop and i couldnt pass on the deal that they were the legit HID lights, but in silver housings and i never had the chance to really look at them b4. plus havent got a chance to go back ever since then (last week, car should be done this week. :) ) so just outa ask the ppl that know s chassis best what they think.

Wow, that looks totally different then the ones I worked on. They had like a paint or a transfer on the inside of the cover. I dunno where the guy got them. So they probably weren't real silver housings.

Looks like a PITA to mask off. Nice work.

[ThatGuy]

Hahahaha, ok guys!

Mike does awesome work, but we can we please stop quoting his picture in every post?

im looking at the superstreet with that silvia in it right now. it definatly doesnt have the NOB emblem and it definatly does not say silvia.

im also 99% sure each headlight has a different emblem. one looks japanese from the passenger side(left side) the drivers side looks like it says "t&eco..." really hard to read though.

Yes. I own an s15 front on my s13...and the silvia emblem is on the bezel. NOT the glass. Masking the silvia emblem is a real pain in the butt

umm just have someone cut you a sticker...

Get a vinyl mask made, problem solved.

[SpdElemts]

Why does it matter what Taniguchi has? If he painted over the silvia emblem would you? Do whatever you want.

[dookiedang]

It's settled! I will be going through Clearcorners.com to do my headlights within the coming months.! thanks for all the posts...

[junsei_projekt]

its a t&e emblem and i do believe its on the inside of the glass...

[SlideWell]

knockoff, and...who gives a shit. cant u tell?

[Matej]

It probably says $$JDM$$.

[Edgar]

Where can I find the eye lids for the S15 lights. My car might look good with them.

[blueshark123]

[Shypo]

Someone hit the nail on the Head...

It Says something to the effect of "T&E Co" or "Carmake T&E"

I have the magazine at home.. I'll dig it out & scan you a close up photo..

[junsei_projekt]

his car was featured in hyper rev...forget what volume though. theres a really nice pic of the headlight with the t&e emblem. must pay off to be related w/ueno eh?

[dookiedang]

just thought i bump. have pictures of my car soon. tell me what you think. if i should save the silver housing or paint it black.

dont forget that the headlights are RHD, regardless if they are halogen or xenon - so they need proper modification before they are roadworthy here in the states.

unless you dont mind blinding people, like most retarded 240sx owners.
