I have a pair of Supermade Clear Lenses over my retrofit.They're of course useless and expensive now that Organized Garage Status is providing us with Clear Lenses for our headlights, but I'm still proud to own a pair.
I also have a Soarer Airbag cover from Japan which I think is cool. I don't know how rare it is here in the states.

And yes I just wrapped the window trim. Five years later and I’m wishing I would have painted it because it’s fading and cracking.
Might as well post some updated parts I’ve acquired
-Ditched the clear lenses and partially delined the oem headlights myself
-Redid custom tails
-Now discontinued Work XT7s
-Carbon Cusco front strut bar
-Greddy oil filter relocation
-Recaro confetti seats with Bride rails
-G Corp checkerboard seats for front and back including rear tunnel

Thank you, I appreciate the kind words. I actually bought the Ganadors not too long before that post for like $400. Then found another driver side Ganador in carbon for $250 haha.

I wrapped my chrome trim seven years ago and mine had started cracking and flaking off. Will paint stick to the chrome trim? I’ve been thinking about painting the trim.
Do you build your taillights yourself? I have a set that resembles yours.

I’ve had a few rare parts I’ve bought and sold the past ten years. Currently I have :
-Custom set of Rotiform TMB wheels. They look black but have heavy flakes in the paint and turn pink in the sun
-Jun BL Titanium mufflers. They’re not on the car anymore but I plan to throw them back on
-Gold SC300 license plate frame
-Custom 2000 Taillights (They’re not pictured)
-Brand new set of 2000 Taillights
-Custom clear and smoked side markers. They’re not on the car right now
I used to have some other rare stuff like JDM window visors, custom step lipped Leon Hardiritt Beil wheels, HKS Carbon Ti exhaust, several other sets of custom taillights, and a Midnight Club: Los Angeles license plate frame from the 2009 DUB car show.

That’s crazy how cheap you got them for. According to some old posts on here, they weren’t as expensive in the 2000’s. They look incredible on your car.

Paint will definitely stick if you do the proper prep work.
Yes, I've been experimenting with opening and modifying tails for a few years now. Originally opened up a few used pairs of 97+ tails and experimented a bit. Then got tired of them and opened up 95 tails to do the 50/50 mod. Then earlier this year I realized that you can still purchase brand new 97+ model tails. So I have been snatching up some brand new sets to modify and sell to others. No more old dry and cracked seals or yellowed reverse lenses! hahah

It is crazy. I thought that price was expensive at that time. And thank you

Will you be painting your trim soon? I figured I’d look into it once I get new bumpers on.
That’s really smart! My taillights were brand new when they got modded. It makes a huge difference. Plus, the used ones looks so nasty now. Do you have more pictures of your different modded taillights?
