The headlights are okay, I guessed, due to being very similar to our GS headlights in shape, but the taillights are nasty. Why would anyone want to modify the 1st Gen GS300 taillights since it's one of the best features of the car. Anyhow, if someone really want the Acura and Honda look, why don't they just buy the real thing instead? Totally not feeling this.

Tail lights are not nasty, you simply just don't like them. I agree the stock setup is good looking. But, this is a clean swap. A+ on workmanship.

I've seen the JDM Headlights and Taillights on eBay. You can just swap them with the JDM ones. Or you could swap back the OEM trunk and rear bumper. Put back the OEM tails. The car is listed at $4200 as I recall.
