Rep Power: 213 yeah i dont like the tailights either, they were on the car when i got it, i actually think that the oem tailights would look better on there

Rep Power: 261 Car looks good but scavenge the junkyards for some tails, but I don't blame ya if you don't change. Cheapest I could get was $76 each even from a junkyard.

I like the kit. You should put an M3 lip on there, I think it wouldset it off with that sleek look. Tails.. enh, they arent as bad as some out there but they do stick out. Maybe with the M3 lip they'll look less noticable like the lexus ones or something.
Overall though, looks good!

Rep Power: 213 yeah, i dont know if u can see it in the pics but right now i have dual exhaust, it looks good but i think im gonna get the greddy evo 2 or skunk2 single exit exhaust, that would be better for the turbo because it would be larger diameter tubing than what i have now

Good looking 7th gen civic. Ill have to admit that I do not like the clear lights. I mean come on those fast and furious eclipse days are over. Either get black ones or stick to oem. Makes the car look cleaner and less ricey. Plus you prob wont get ur car keyed with the clear ones off!

Rep Power: 213 ok, after calling around for two days ive found a set of 04 tailights for $90 each, great shape, no scratches or cracks. these are actually the cheapest ive found. a couple of places could get new ones but they were like 130 each.
is this a reasonable deal, or should i keep looking? never really bought tailights before so i didnt know if that was a good deal. also i didnt realize how hard it would be to find them damn things, nobody within 50 miles has them except for honda. took me forever to find them
