2003 Tails Are In *Pics*

I thought this would be the most pointless mod for my car ever, but it actually turned out to be the best. I get 10 HP at the wheels for each light, thats 20 whp total! The reasoning is that the 2001-2002 tails restricted the light emittance to red only. Now that I have clears in the rear, light flows from the back of the car more freely, giving me more boost! Best investment ever!

Peep the ghetto harness hookup...

why r yall doin that?? look no mean to offend n e 1 everybody has their own taste but the taillights on the 03 suck ! i like the 01-02 taillights they look menacing especially on white, silver and black...i thought acura made so many mistakes on the 03 and that was definitely 1 of em ... the second was removin the fogs and the third was changin the wheels ... awww fuck it i think they just plain fucked the whole car up other then the 6 speed and limited slip ... funny thing i saw an 03 in a bank parkin lot today and what amazed me was it had the ol school slush box tranny...

Dude, my shit won't come in for at least another 3 weeks.

I don't have a final delivery date, and probably won't have one until they are about to arrive.

I....CAN'T...WAIT....!

Mantis,

I saw a picture of the Panama Canal on the news and I think I saw your RIMS in a box on one of the ships down there.

IMO, the 03 tails look good on the darker colors (Black, Anthracite, ShawnS Blue)...but the earlier tails look much better on the lighter colors (white, silver)
