Okay, here is what I would do with that SC of yours. You have a good base to start off with...I as well as most of the SC people think your going in the wrong direction.

~Tint the tails and the wing brake light.
~Get the stickers off the car. Its a Lexus, and unless its racing you should loose the fan boy decals.
~Take off your emblems and shoot them Gloss Black. Get rid of that VVti emblem too...way too busy back there.

The SC is one of the cleanest lined cars made. The cleaner you can make the car, the better.

There. I see almost zero resemblance between an Integra and my car....

Also, the tails are chrome. So I dunno what you meant.
I had those exact tails on my integra when i had one, but the tails look exactly like integra lights

but for the cost, you can easily get a set of 95+ tails, and for a tad more some 97+

But Hey as far as what all the negative comments are going, I agree the tails are you then thats cool, but I for SURE would lose the gold badges and the Tenzo R sticker unless they are a sponsor? Get chrome or black badges Gold is So Grandma!!!

that may be true BUT other people are still going to judge you based on your car.

Those ebay tails, lic plate holder, gaint decal, vvt-i *caugh v-tec* they all make you seem like a fast and the furious kook.

I'm not trying to hurt your feelings here but rocking all that stuff is just making your car an embarrassment.

These are the tails I got pretty much the same thing as the other post but I choose to get it with the reverse light smoked housing.

I'm not trying to hurt your feelings here but its sad seeing someone take such a nice car and make it embarrassing.
You judge people by their cars? Classy guy up in here.

He put on ebay tails and stickers, like so many other people with SC's have done. If your not trying to hurt the dudes feelings...

and with the subject of the thread, i think they look odd to me, but then again i dont like the round lights thus why i didnt get some.

I do agree with the badges, they all need to be one color, but cleanshot said they are all going chrome so it will work.

other than that have fun with it!

I was wondering about these... Does anyone have a pic of these red clears, or smoke clears on a sc?

Its almost like different people have different taste... go figure.

If it makes YOU happy on YOUR car then %^&* the nay-sayers. As far as the bulbs go i have no idea, hopefully one of the good answers amoung the trolls helped you out.
