Need opinions on 01-03 tail lights on a 05
 
Hey everyone I'm in the market for atleast one more tail light for my ssm 2005 coupe because my neighbor cracked it backing out, and I was wondering whether I should pay the $130 to get another 05 tail light from Honda or if I should buy 2 01-03 tails from a local shop for $80. I have always thought that the 05 tail lights were a little too shiny and chrome-ish but I was wondering if I would wish I had stuck with the 05 later on, so let's hear if you think the 05 tail is worth the extra cash.

05 tails are so much better looking, there more today looking. My car came with the 01-03 tails, and i got the oem looking ebay tails.

04-05 tails FTW!! No reason to go back to the "horseshoe" look...

I actually prefer the 01-03 rears... but the EDM ones are the best IMO (luckily, cos the're what i have lol)

there is a post somewhere showing that at craigslist they have a right 04-05 tail light for like >$30... not for sure though... :-\ search would help

get the 04-05, the older ones don't look as good, imo. a lot of people with 01-03 cars upgrade/mod to the 04-05 lights.
