I personally like them. They look like the origin lights on the 240 coupes. My buddy has a set that looks fresh lol

Here they are in clear:



10x better than the 92's stock orange tails. There's nothing ricey about it at all. I considered the smoked but I wanted something that looked like it could have been stock, and I refuse to pay the asking price of newer (but still used) stock tails when I can get brand new for $130.

For the record... that is your opinion. Not fact. I am sure alot of people will argue that with you. But whatever makes you happy I guess.

Yes, 100% plug and play. I may tint or frost the top later on.

Plenty of higher end vehicles have a red & white combo for the tails. Why is this version rice and theirs not? Just because they're clear? It's not like all the APC lights from a decade ago that were 90% silver reflector with a few nasty round lenses. Replacing those garish orange-yellow beacons makes the rear of the car look 10 years newer.

IS300 pulls off Altezza lights really nicely. A civic doesn't. Neither does a Chevy Tahoe.

Something about ebay lights, headlights and taillights just look like they are cheaply made. They have too much shine, and they POP too much because they are so reflective. So right away they look out of place, especially on a 10+ year old car that has faded and peeling paint.
