replica

vs oem

oem is just a tint of grey man nothing special

OEM 99-00 CTR headlights are the shit. 96-98 headlights are overrated

yea but oem still owns replicas/DIY no matter what
even tho there isnt much difference between oem ek1/4 and oem ctr (prefacelift)
its would be like saying
"hey my fake headlights are better then your REAL ones" lol

**EK4R** · 17-05-2007 02:33 AM

yea ofcos. oem would be the best choice for anything. but just isnt my prefered coloured choice when it comes to these headlights. prefer the darker tint.

sames goes for ek9 taillights. i prefer both lights lit up when brake is pressed not just the top one.

thats what im trying to point out anyways. not saying oem is shit

**pchio** · 17-05-2007 02:40 AM

yea i totally agree with you on that
i wasnt implying that you said oem is shit
just though i would state that no matter what a fake is still a fake

For the price of the two, replica vs oem, ill take the replicas. Just my opinion though.

^ im with him lolol. if ur in an accident oh man tha pain lol

**kyobibi** · 18-05-2007 01:14 AM

yeah oem is of course the best choice but sometimes just silly.

ie. following ek4r's guide vs buying oem ctr headlights.
the money spent on the headlights can be used on spray paint as well as other mods!!
