those might look more real...or more fake, depending on your view.

This new fake TE-37 might be worse then the notorious fake Volk stickers. Not only is this wheel a straight rip off, but JLB Motorsports has reached an all time low by etching false terms on their new “signature” wheel. Take a close look at the etching: “Design by Japan,” “monoblock,” and “forged.” What exactly does “design by Japan” mean? Be warned, this wheel is NOT a forged monoblock construction. The wheel is cast and as as fake as can be. JLB argues the etching is for “aesthetic purposes.” LOL

Don't spread FUD.

The lights won't crack if you open them...what about the people who opened 99 tails to clear the blinker, or the people who have opened their tails to do an LED conversion?

i tried to open mine....it broke and mine was a spare 2001+ unit...

mine cracked all to hell. so i guess i was speaking from personal experience and i have opened headlights and im fairly mechanically inclined also so im not retarded.

maybe he 98-2000 will open easier, my 2001+ didnt

you just have to be very careful, despite the years.
