Facelift UK to pre-facelift JDM taillights

[gcon45]

After spending quite a bit of time (and money) I've finally switched my taillights.

I ended up buying a complete new set from Honda.

I felt that the facelift lights looked lost between the new formula red paintwork on the back of the car and that the darker pre-facelift lights look much better.

Comments welcome!

I suppose the world would be a boring place if we were all the same Jay!

Sorry I am with Ivor too. Look a bit old fashioned for me. Sorry.

Interesting.

Both replies from previous and current facelift owners (respectively).

Well why don't I fit a set of pop ups and be done with it?

i get what you've done, wanted to define the lights from the body colour... it's worked, and looks good, never have liked the egg-yolk lights myself...


and anyway, 1. it's your car so you can do what you like, and 2. its hardly an irreversable modification!!!

Any more pics Conor?

That's exactly what I wanted to achieve Jonathan and I'm over the moon with the result

Not a fan of the egg yolk indicators either.
There's something very Peugeot about them (in my eyes).

The invisible indicators on the pre-facelift lights are cool

I haven't had the chance to take any proper pics yet Sudesh.

I'll hopefully get time for a wash and wax at the weekend along with some good pictures.

It works for me and I think it 'slims' down the rear view of the NSX

It the reverse of what i've done where the darker early lights were lost on the back of my NSX so I swapped to the 02+ lighter finish.
