Haven't seen those before, but they do look good and JDM does make a lot of japanese import car parts, not sure if the lights are JDM, but I am assuming they are based on the sellers screenname.

yes those are the type S tails and im pretty sure those are the OEM ones and the seller is just a moron

message him to verify that they are genuine OEM PARTS ..

but im not sure why you would but those - brand new genuine Type-S tails are less from hondacuraworld.com

To the best of my knowlege there is no such thing as JDM parts for the 3rd gen TL ( 04-07 ). This TL was designed and build here in the US so its only OEM parts. Ive looked into it and there was only the Honda inspire which was for the Japanese version of the TL for the 2nd gen and below. This kinda explains the offten too frequent rattles/ fit and finish problems with the 3rd gen TL's.

NO problem. I will take some when I go home for lunch. Its weird I saw this...cause the other set just came in on Friday and I said....ah...I will just crank it off in the black market...but if you want em...all good there too. Not looking for profit...I just know they were hard to get and out of stock so I was jamming in a few different directions and two of em came through. I got one of the last sets from Tim at Hondacuraworld....and also got some from A of E on ebay following this as I was not sure Tim was gonna have em for me as they were telling people of out of stock status...but after talking I found my order was placed on some of the last sets they expected to get before x-mas or the 26th or something like that.

Anyway...sure man...I will snap some when I go home for lunch.

That is a good point...I havent opened the box yet. I would have to do this for the pics anyway...otherwise...I would just be showing you the box that I DID open. So as long as you are cool....I will open the box and snap some pics so you know its the right part. It has the OEM decal still on the box too...so the part# should be visible for verification too.
