yea, at least switch it around to "not my cup of coffee".
i think that'll look sweet on a white coupe or a dark one, not in between IMO. nice job overall.

Hmm, a little too ricey for me. I think the stock taillights look perfect already! Kinda looks like a Transformer or something

I haven't seen to many accords rolling around that look like my rear end. I do think that it looks a little ricey but I like the cleaner look of the rear end. I like the tail lights stock but it's just a little to much red. To be honest I was trying to get as close to the skylight line look as possible. Either way I understand that it may not be for everyone. I looked at Bats site and IMO the smoked tails only look good in black or maybe red. I was just trying to do a little different and that it is.


Here is a night pic for you guys. I think at night is where it really looks good.

The main point was US Goverment mandated, DOT required... orange turn signals & reflectors in front & red in rear.
The person at fault had a "Fast & Furious" type modded auto. The point of the lawsuit was that the insurance company denied paying the claim since the driver had modified his turn signals, headlights/taillights, and they did not meet legal DOT requirements! The plaintif says they were confused by the lights...as they know that all US cars must have.....
That would suck big ones!
Something to consider.....Insurance Companies look for any loopholes possible.
I don't see any problem with his mod- the lights which matter are totally uncovered. The ones that I've seen which are covered in tint, now that could be asking for trouble.

I think it just detracts from the coolest part of the car IMO... The taillights should be shown off as much as possible, not covered up with tinted film. In the night picture, the middle LEDs are begging to shed light but they are covered by the ugly silver tint. At least it matches the car perfectly tho. Just not my cup of ginseng infused green tea.

Just a little off topic, since I'm not talking about tea, but I have the exact same cars in my garage.

03 6MT BS coupe on the right and 02 Silver CRV on the left.
