altezzas
im not going to defend the fact they they are SUPER played out.. but they look so much better than the big ugly red lenses.. well.. not the chrome ones.. those look retarded as hell.. but in general
if having something thats new and popular makes it rice than shouldnt everyone with carbonfiber be getting flamed..
just my 2 bits

CF is dumb if you have a back seat. CF is only for weight reduction and if it is used to look cool, then yes it is dumb.

It's all for looks. If it weren't, then people that went CF would have their CF painted... They want others to see that it is different from stock. The same thing with tail lights, people want to see something different, so they put on something that looks like it should be on a more expensive car. Seriously, do you know anyone with "Sephia" tail lights on a Civic?
^i got sephia tails on my civic man...
lol jk
if you like altezzas, go for it. only true car enthusiast* know how to take care of their cars and maintain it. the ones that dont are most likely the ones that rev, primier their hood so it looks cf, etc. im not bashing altezzas, i actually like the carbon fiber ones for the coupe and would match with the color scheme im going. but i personally like OEM tails better because their more sleek, wont give me problems (water in housing/police hassle). UKDM tails = best (imo)
as for cf, i was thinking about a cf hood and trunk for looks but i dont have that kinda money. if i wanted that "cf look", i would've went with an OEM nhbp(black) hood so im guaranteed 100% OEM fitment. but i know ppl who get on my case and say "ricer ricer ricer" blah

Hmm I used to have the tyc chrome tezzas on my sedan. I really thought they looked super nice, but after a while I realized how clean the stocks look. It's all part of modding. I've tried so many different things on my ride. Some stay and some go.

04 oem lights rock, but I just bought the black euros with the halo ring. They will just match the overalllook of the car better. laugh if you want, I can handle it.
Last time I had this much fun some furniture got broken!
