Best looking of the three? Well you guys know my opinion. I'm thinking of playing around with my spare set of 76 tails to make them all red & smooth over that rectangular edge. If I ruin them it's OK. They were cracked anyways.

Also wanted to add that the 76 & 77 tails ARE different shades of red. 76 is deeper, it's not just those pictures.

Oh yeah one more thing - Screw CT.........

A quick question...I have a '76 Laguna "project". It's mostly all there...but it will still be a long project.

If I bought a '75, can you just change the tail panel, fender corners, and trunk to make it look like a '76?

Should work. I believe 75-77 should all bolt up.

It should work as long as you use all them 75 Pieces from the donar.

You may run into problems with mounting holes being different on a 76. I wanted to do the same because i loved the look of the little bowties on the lenses. I picked up a complete tail panel minus the the quarter extensions. When i went to test fit the holes didnt line up.

no big deal if drilling new holes isnt an issue but just a heads up.

Now the tail panel is a cool lit up wall hanger in the man cave.

And that also what I meant you would HAVE TO HAVE the Metal Tail panel from the donar to weld in, Sorry If I didn't clarify that
Would need the Metal tail section and the rest of the Pieces for that puzzle
