Oh Snap JP Style Taillights
Maybe some of you have already seen this, but i just found them. Still priced a bit high for knock off's, but they look good.

Says its a WISE make (a brand name) but has some tricky wording about a "D.I.Y project "
I wonder if you'd get a set of 2001+ tails and a couple of pieces of clear plastic

ebay Japan link too
I found the same lights on ebay japan and if you translate it you can read a bit more about them. Not a whole lot more to read....but some people may find it interesting. At least the price is cheaper in the event you have contact over in Japan, or you can use Rinkya.

DIY or not?

At least i think it's the whole completed light assembly.
IIRC...the auction for my Silvia lights also said something about DIY, but i think the point they were trying to get across through broken Engrish was that it's a DIY "swap out".

The lights don't look that bad. I'd buy them.
The whole thing about Junction Produce is that they don't make some of the parts they sell. I saw a member on here that got the "Juction Produce chrome door handles" I hate to ask what he paid for these. These are actually made by another company and RE-PACKAGED as Junction Produce. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't make their own tail lights either. Although these are LED's though.

As Johnny alludes above I *think* this is the same place that was selling 'junction produce style' taillights and they had the nerve to hotlink to my personal webpage for the pictures on their auction using my car.
Let's just say they had a sudden change in pictures that I'd never show my mother on their auction

those dont look like it was made from OEM raw materials like the JP.
The clear parts looks even thicker than the original orange piece. For some reason the whole tail lights look off balance to me. (like the center ring for the brake light)
also, the Black plastic area where the two bolt holes are looks too glossy. what if these were the same lights luxury mods were suppose to release?

anyway, here the taillights in question:
anyone notice that the clear strip looks a lot "thicker" than the jp? i understand how they did it. they basically just cut out the whole bubtom part of the taillight and put in a clear piece, whereas for the jp they actually carefully cut out just the amber, leaving the outter red ring and then glue on the clear part back (amazing craftmanship). but i am kinda surprised at the visual effect.
here's mine for comparison:
you can see what i mean
