Ok so I had been up in air about which tails to go with. Chinese tails were almost a go but wasn't really what I wanted but were easy to find. I decided to wait and do my research on the tails I really wanted. Through many turned away e-mails and PM's I finally decided to e-mail a company that deals with rare parts and overseas parts. Thay were able to track them down brand new. So here are the pics they should be in my posession within the next couple weeks and I am stoked! I know its only a minor difference but worth it to me being that no one else has them.

here is a comparrison pic.....

Excuse my untrained eyes, but I don't see the difference.

Coming from Honda, I never really understood the JDM concept or why you have to spend thousands of dollars to modify a stock car to make it look like another stock car :wacko:

LOL The only difference is the clear reflector wraps around to the edge more than the usdm ones. The reason I like this is it keeps the car "clean" but is still different from the rest. I love hard to find and rare parts. Oh and these cost maybe 20$ more than altezza lights. But I get what your saying. Its all on your style. Some like the crazy body kits altezza lights to stand out. Others like the subtle differences. Sometimes the minor differences go a long way. IMO.

Looks cool! I like the JDM tails that have big amber sections, because they are easily distinguishable from USDM parts, but these are pretty cool. Something only someone with a trained eye would catch, and IMO that makes all the difference.
