I think the aftermarket lights look good. I got pretty dark tints, want black projector lights, black rims, and lower car. I think after all of that the lights will look good. Keep in mind i have a 93'. Stock lights are fugly as hell.

Can you look at these pics and tell me they look ugly?

I hope Kevin and Ray don't mind, but I gotta make an example for these fools. LOL

I'd take cracked with holes stock tails and heads before getting any of the eBay ones. As a matter of fact, my driver side tail is cracked.

Hmmm... this all makes more sense after reviewing the OP's comments and getting back on topic:

Then you will have to pay over $100 to get the clear aftermarket corner lamps and tint them, because that's probably what that guy did. If you don't want to spend decent money or if you're on an allowance budget, then you have to just work with what you've got (spray tinting the OEM orange corner lamps) but it won't look the same as that guys car.

As for those taillights, same - spend decent money to fix them (if there was a legit reason to take them off - like they were cracked or broken) or upgrade to newer OEM taillights. We are talking full-sized cars here. Parts cost $. Paying $200 for a set of replacement OEM taillights for a 15-ish year old car is par for the course - try asking how much taillights for newer cars cost, then $200 will be a bargain.

Please don't get those projector aftermarket headlamps from eBay.

Just bake your headlights open and black out the housings. I currently have blacked out headlights but I bought mines off a member cause mines became victim of the car lot.

$100 bought me the "Prelude" clones and I'm fine with it.



Plenty of luxury cars come with red/clear lighting in back. It's not like the blinkers don't light in yellow. If I had chopped up a few sets of stockers to achieve the same look it would be praised. Because this is clear instead of frosted plastic, it gets bashed.

Tough.

BTW, if anyone wants a drivers side stock 92 brake light assembly, $50 shipped and it's yours!
this has nothing to do with clear vs frosted, those lights just look like cheap crap. and no thats not an opinion, its based on physical properties such as material choice. crappy material makes a crappy part.
