The tarmac blacks with red tails look like a demon when you're behind them and yeah I guess I'm just too practical of a guy to pour my money into jdm asthetics... function over form. Take care and keep modding

No matter what..... If you leave the chrome USDM tails like they are they will always look like rice cakes.

Actually Japan also received the 'riced out' taillights except with an amber turn signal. I myself am waiting for my VII's, but probably in the future I may buy some MR's. I have to agree with you though, those vinyl over lay kits are nastayyy.

It pissed me off a little bit because they were so damn expensive and I knew I could have damn near bought a cat back with it. I just think the only way to give the car a "clean" look is the VII's. Just my .02

I think that most people hate the altezza look because it's become so popular to say they are rice. personally I think they look good on my apex silver. You really shouldn't be so concerned with what other people think, just do what you like!
