imho altezza lights only look good on fully done up cars for that "show" look.... considering ur car is almost stock in apperance it doesnt really fit in

unless your going to whack 20" blingin spinners and bag it, remove them lol, like ghost said, that much chrome on an essentially stock looking car doesn't quiet match

yeh well i think the chrome dosnt suit the car otherwise they'd look aite

btw.. i love the honesty of ozhonda members.. if somethings s%$t they'll tell u :)
the cars been lowered since those photos too. i hated the look of my wheels on the car without it lowered, looks awful.. so now im gonna take the lights off and i wanna get a front lip for it and maybe paint the black plastic parts on the side white, some cheaper mods seemings im broke atm.. should make it look a bit nicer without costing too much :)

yeh i would have to say, that any aftermarket lights are questionable. i dont really like them, also heaps of aftermarket lights are really cheap and nasty (thus the light is pink instead of red) i think that sux too. honestly i dont like them at all, the only car that sort of light looks good on is the lexus altezza which they come standard on!

no, its not for sale yet.. need it for now.. prob sell it in about a year depending on financial status, hopefully to buy an integra.. must have been a car with similar rims or something that was in carsales, and i agree.. stock looks better :)
