JDM tails

Lol me neither but to Everyman his own.... Does anyone know if the front lights are different between the jdm and usdm spec front lights?

Also, man, you can just paint the chrome on the factory housings black, It's a whole hell of a lot cheaper to do that then buy actual black housing headlights....did it myself, looks 200% better than the chrome IMO. Going to do the HID retrofit on mine here eventually also.

I hate the altezzas for the fact that they don't form to the body lines. They have that nasty knob on top

I hate them because they remind me of the "fast and furious" ricer years where Altezza tails, Terminator wings and neon underglow where the dopeness...lol
 
Those are the black alteezas....time to email Blue Batmobile to get some smoked overlays for the turn and reverse signals.

Canadians got the black housings for MY03 as well.


sorry for possibly quoting too much, just meant the pics and i'm using my PS3. The overlays look sick as hell. to be honoest i can't quite tell if they're over the actual light with the clear cover taken off or on the clear cover itself. To the others, replacing red tails with more ugly retarded red tails just doesn't make sense.....
And KCKrogoth you're black sticker stripe is crooked.
 
To each their own as stated before man, people are gonna design their cars however they want it's no reason to flame anyone for liking a certain style bro...

Also, not sure by what you mean about my "Black sticker stripe" because first off it's red not black, and I asure you it isn't crooked, it's probably just how the pic came out in the sig...(2thumbs)

Did you just spray paint the Crome or did you do something different? I was thinking if you were to spray the chrome black wouldn't the black absorb some of the light coming out of the bulbs ?

The whole thing separates into a few parts man, you just paint the chrome bezel part....Here is a pic of mine before I painted it...

They are simply applied to the exterior of the light....a little soap and warm water and about ten minutes of time. I later swapped out the amber turn signal bulbs for chrome ones...that cleaned up the egg yolk effect.

What's that plastic thing on the left hand side of the light above the turn signal? It looks weird like it doesn't belong in the housing...
 
Vortex calculation input duct..............Had them on my chrome ones back in 04, for a week or so before putting the oems back on. The algorythm in the vortex calculator was out of sync on the passenger side.

Truly one of the design flaws on the stock tail lights. The proper algorythm on these tails truly make them an improvement. You think they would calculate these things in-factory
 
I finally got mines installed today so much better than the oem ones... Shoutouts to KcKrogoth for sourcing me a set , if anyone needs a set I highly recomend him.
