For a 2004 swap, R1Style is right. You need everything, new bumper, trunk lid, lights etc. It's all different for 2004, notthing lines up right. The lights are rounder on the outer tails so you need the bumper.

So i'll get that sorted out next week. I had the underside of the trunk painted like the outside so it looks nice and shiny. Here are some pics...Hope you like.
not for the 2005 EL's. they are a slightly different dimension. you could probably do a straight swap for a 2002 EL trunk lid w/corner lights for a 2002 LX sedan trunk lid w/corners...that would work. then you can buy a set of oem 2005 EL tails and switch them with the 2002(not sure if they will fit but they look the same), but i think it's a waste of money if you ask me.
i prefer the shape of the honda oem tails.

The whole rear is different. The 04 and up EL rear isn't even a direct bolt on... APRboy had to have new holes made for this to fit.
