And lastly, the ill-fated tailights. They look better in the day (I swear!)
Anyway, I'm heading off to watch Agent Cody Banks #2 because there isn't anything good out right now. Hope you guys have a good Saturday night. - Dzur |

I thought he was talking about Fiona Apple too.
You're welcome for the gauges, glad someone can use them and they are nice. You know they're six color right? And about 8 levels of illumination. If you're car is the SOHC then you should know that the redline is wrong on those gauges. Mine was a DOHC so it redlined at 8200. Yours is what? 7500 I believe. |

Thanks guys. It's a nice looking car.
And I know - everyone hates Altezza's, but I like them. I don't know, why does everyone hate them? Is it because they're on so many crappy cars? Oh, the guy next door to me just painted his CRX bright green. It's nice looking, and has some nice silver wheels on it (17's I believe) and it's lowered with a body kit (Wings West I believe), plus he has the B16 SiR-II motor swap...LOL that motor BARELY fits in that tiny engine bay. The del Sol's is waaaay bigger...I think I could almost fit a V6 in mine. - Dzur Oh yeah - why does everyone hate Altezza's? |

because the quality of them looks like crap... it takes away from the origionality of a taillight swap, everyone has them... making your car not look like as much of an individual. they make a car look alot worse... i dunno i just dont like em

To be honest i had them on my integra and still do but i never drive it. The CF ones are ok but chrome ones are plain But soon they are coming off and im selling them and clearing out my oem ones. I cleared out the ones on my maxima and it looks sick 10 times better then altezzas IMO. My bro got the Red/clears on his accord and it's sick looking too.

i figured out the real reason i dont like them... these fall into the same catagory as huge kits on r34s z3 fenders on z3's big wings on the STI/EVO etc... (this being altezzas on an is300/lexus of any kind) they look godo on the car they are supposta be on. but just because it looks good on one car dosnt mean it does across the board. hondas look MUCH better with stock tails. i saw the nicest 4 door civic ive seen in a looooong time today. and guess what was done to it. nto a damn thing. it was waxed right, paint looked like a million dollars, and the only visable mods from what i saw was matching leather interior. i dunno... overkill isnt the way to mod a car imo. let your car speak for its self by the subtile mods that enhance the origional design of the car... dont make it scream like an attention whore.

Well guys, I came around to hear your voice(s) of reason and I just purchased:
1) Hyper White headlights bulbs 2) Crystal clear corners 3) AND some Carbon-Fiber Altezza's (what I wanted in the first place) DOES THAT MAKE YOU PEOPLE HAPPY!?!?!?! - Dzur P.S. I know it's my car - but I like altezzas. It's just that I like CF Altezza's better. |
