I did a Tail light Conversion on my Sedan a year ago and it looks original.

When Brake + nightlight is on



I was thinkin about conversions on coupe, and rear look of coupe gave me somekind of Evo lookish style anys here it is, want to know how you guys like it lol

Molded Trunk + Licence plate on your bumper (thx to joski for pics)

I just half tinted my 03 lights (top part)
too lazy to move the lights to bottom, so it still lights up as OEM

I always thought that the sedan taillights looked like the TSX taillights. It's about time somebody did the "conversion."

maybe the sedan tail lights would look more "tsx"ey if it was the acura EL tail lights. the newer acura el tail lights have the circles...like the tsx.

^^ yeah I was thinking about swaping the trunk lid with new EL and do this cause it will look so sweet since Circles are on bottom of the light assembly insted of top as Civic has.. but too expensive lol

was it a direct fit onto the trunk cuz i know theres spots on the inside of the trunk where you have to drill through for the oem spoiler.
