Tail lights assembly for 2002 Civic 2DR

I am planning on replacing the boring red tail light assembly with aftermarket ones. Does anyone know any places that sell good quality parts? I was looking at a few on ebay, but not sure about the quality. Here are some of them:

Also my car color is silver. Do black ones look better than the clear ones? What do you think?

Do your self and your car a favour... Don't get those tail lights. Either smoke the tail lights you have now, or get 04-05 OEM tail lights. Aftermarket tail lights are usually considered rice, and rice is bad for your car, just ask your local car doctor! Also i should mention, rice is very addictive, and easy to get a hold of (especially for civics!).

man...rice that **** the **** out! that's about all you'll be able to do with it after you get your I/H/E. and go to www.andysautosport.com then look for the "spyder" products. they got black altezzas for cheap! if you want cheap body kits look up "silk automotive".
...or you can buy a can of blackout from advanced auto parts and hopefully they dont look like ****...

Re: Tail lights assembly for 2002 Civic 2DR

The trick to making a car look good it to make it look like what it should've looked like from the factory. Something that looks like it should've been made by a real car company. Ebay parts are stupid and when you see people take pictures of a rice rocket it's not cause it looks nice, it's cause they're going to post the picture online to be laughed at.

Re: Tail lights assembly for 2002 Civic 2DR

If he wants to go rice, let him go rice. It is HIS car anyways so he can do what he wants.

If you must choose between the 2 I'd go with the black one because Chrome tails, in my opinion, are ugly as ****.

However,getting some VHT nightshade and Tinitng them looks cleaner. Also the 04-05 OEM tail lights are very nice as well. I think I'd go with the 04-05 tails over tinting them personally.

Thanks for your advice. So you are saying I can buy the 04-05 tails and put them on my 02 and they will fit?

there is a diy here somewhere. physically they fit, but a couple of the connectors and sokcets need to be rewired for the bulbs to work like they should.
