What are we supposed to do with this tail light picture? Guess what car it comes from? Or is it one of those articles in between Apocalypse-style ones?
BTW, great coverage, great content gentlemen!
It’s a metaphor for the auto industry.
Or whatever.
Is this supposed to be a challenge? If so, then for future reference, maybe you guys might want to rename the image. Unless you really wanted it to be that simple.

So, like, are we supposed to come up with a funny caption in kitteh-speak?
The whole light tail light represents the Big 3 (in the red). One section (the one on top) is GM (red) and the other two are surrounded by the suppliers (red). I am on drugs.
I’m gonna say it’s for an Audi
Damn, I was gonna say Ford Flex before I read through the comments. In hindsight, I see that there isn’t enough chrome.
At least its not a lex-arse style one.
seoultrain- I was thinking the same thing. Maybe the goofy step side F-150 from years past? Again, this was before I read any of the comments.
At first I thought A4 cab but forditude already spoiled it…
“A car of the upper middle-class range should not of course be flamboyant, which is why the accessory specialists at in.pro. have used muted red for the “glass”. With the two transparent inserts, and particularly with the LED optics when switched on, the rear lights still differ visibly from the original and give the everyday car more pep.”
Hover over the picture if you haven’t already.
The tail light is a symbol of the American auto industry. It says “Hey, I am braking here” or maybe “I intend to turn.”
Unless it is from a car driven in Boston, in which case it means “As you can see I have already started turning, and am putting on my turn signal 10 seconds too late to insult you for thinking I might use my turn signals to avoid an accident rather than a ticket. Hah!”
You can also post a headlamp, a foglamp a mirror with marking lamps…
I’ve been taking it in the spirit of the Top Gear Dacia Sandero running joke during the news.
Non-altezza taillights aren’t funny at all.
Look, more pageviews! ;)
