I realize that I said I'd post pictures of the RS tails quite awhile back... I apologize for the delay, school has been crazy the past few weeks. These are bad phone pictures but they'll do for now, until I have access to a DSLR.






It's hard to distinguish the LEDs here, but they're LED

Any pics? I'm leaning towards the tint on the interior and not the vinyl on the exterior.

Did they make a cut out for your rear view mirror?

Look clean, may have to consider a change for mine....maybe I'll just tint them or something. Kinda weird that the taillights now light up on TOP compared to the BOTTOM like the USDM did. wonder why they went that route.

Thanks I wondered the same myself, but I like the look much better. For $160 I have absolutely no complaints.

Love the pics Connor! Congrats on getting the front end swap completed! And still being able to have the RS front badge. My only complaint about the mugen grill is I can't run the front badge anymore.

I def like the JDM/ EDM front end. If I can find a deal on the parts I'd do it as well.

I replaced the stock antenna with a Toyota Matrix antenna. Not drastic but helps to keep all of the Chicago stations from bleeding into each other. I also put in a USB port using stock parts from the junk yard into my base stock radio.

Damn....yet another reason that I should have a FB account....TFC part outs. Nice find bud. Theres a Modulo center garnish in the FS section now...was thinking of getting it...but my dipped front and rear diffusers still look good =)

But maybe I'll snag it up since I'm in talks about his cusco parts.

Any pics of this? I'm still considering the visual Garage shark fin to get rid of the RC-car looking antenna.

The Filipino Channel....j/k. True Fit Crew....guess the "cool" kids are part of it. I just know about it...maybe it's supposed to be like Fight Club and not talk about it...
