YJC88-
Are the pictures above your car, because I noticed the grill is from the 2005 ES and you have a 2004 ES?

It looks great! Did the upgraded parts fit with no problems, ie: did the screw holes match up and did you have to do any drilling? Also, you should add the grill to your profile.

the taillights and the chrome trunk trim piece are my next mod.

I have three requests for quotes from three different online parts dealers.
YC, whom did you get your tails from and did you change out the amber bulb for a clear one to light up the red or did you just leave the amber bulb in there?

I just noticed you have a light charcol interior in a black car, now that is sweet.

I changed the rear reverse bulb to a bi-hybrid bulb already but left the turn signal amber.
I am currently looking for a yellow turn signal bulb (not orange), I am very dissapointed with the clear bulb which light up amber because it does not provide a very good illumination to other driver... Btw My car is a Blue Onyx with ivory.... I have clear turn signal in front ... but i recently got a ticket for it therefore the pics is amber
