The JDM base ones are the best. The JDM LEDs a lot like the USDM tails when not lit up so they wouldn't be worth the huge price tag.

i think the 2nd one looks best. the 3rd one looks too much like the 07-08's
not that there's anything bad about the 07-08's but just not different enough.

Voted for #2. I like my tail lights to be more red than they are clear.

I have a set of #2 hanging in my garage. They were only on the car 3 days, but I love my new after market lights better with my
Mugen body kit.



Thai OEM tail lights

Fogging up due to not being sealed up properly( lets water in ).. also plastic scratches and turns yellowish after a few months... .most Japanese GE6/8 users will not touch them... food for thought

I like the Dual tip exhaust.
