I have tried Ebay for several weeks and $179 is the lowest I have came across. And can someone tell me why the hell 4 door altezza light are cheaper than 2 door??

Depends on what type you want. Yeah, be careful with ebay, but I think that's the cheapest place you can find them.

Rep Power: 0 i am beginning to believe that there are more civic's with altezza's than there are without. maybe just having the stock tailights should be considered a mod nowadays. i personally feel you should save the money from the tailights and buy something else...

Rep Power: 0 In my town, you hardly see a hooked up 2k1 Civic. I think I have maybe seen 1 or 2. Everybody here likes the old skool bodies better (xcept for me). So, I think my car would stand out. I can't help it if my town is behind the times.

Rep Power: 0 I had ordered a set of so-called 3rd gen lights... they were so poorly made I returned them - who needs uneven edges & gaps showing? Be careful of the mgf rejects & seconds sold as new on e-bay.
The other thing... I've since begun to wonder about doing a so-called performance mod like that. Most of the aftermarket tails I see out there are dim and hard to see - worse performance than OEM models - and I don't need some old man driving up my rear because he didn't see my lights.
I do kinda like the new hybrid's lights and hate the wimpy pink back-up lights on mine.

Didn't read the replies, but I'm sure at least 1,2 all of the replies consists of clicking the "Parts" section.
Also, try searching, using the "search" button located within the forums.

Rep Power: 0 yup my town is actually gettin along with the times. ive seen about 3 or 4 civics that have clears on them. i put em up on my car a few months ago. altezza's r worth buying, they add a lot to your car. just make sure if u r gona get the carbon fiber ones, ur car is black... dont look good on other colors.

Rep Power: 0 i put altezza's on my silver civic.....looks much better then the stock tail lights. mainly because it makes the car look all one color. i bought mine off ebay and have never had a problem with them. lines on them are clean. but i think if you have a dark color car you need to put the carbon fiber ones on....just my .02
