Supra 3rd brakelights are clear LED's that glow red when lit up. You'd have to mold it into your hatch, though.

lol hey mine is still "rally style" too

go to a plastic molding company (like a sign maker or something) and mess with that. You could also get some cheap clear plastic sheets and bake them (and then mold).

replacing all those LED's will be a PITA.

Well those tail lights are definitely illegal. But I'm pretty sure clear brake lights on your spoiler isn't. They come standard white on my WRX. Shines up just as red as the tail lights when you press on the brakes. Amazing how they matched up the color.

its illegal.

I dont think it is. I went to the subaru dealership last weekend and there was a brand new 2k3 wrx that had one. it wasnt aftermarket b/c the car was brand new with 20 miles on it so no one has owned it yet. how can a dealership sell something on the car from the factory that is illegal

That's my winter project. Anyone is welcome to go off roading with me!!!

BTW, I'm not a ricer. Just started getting into mods to my car and I'm not going to do much engine work until the warrenty is done. As for the whole rice thing, to me some cars are way over the top, however, I think 17's, lowered (soon) and clear tail light hardly constitutes rice!!

why is this in the INTEGRA forum and not the APPEARANCE forum?

I have no problem with anyone wanting to ruin their cars by doing stupid things to them, just makes mine look better, but for the love of anything, please learn to post in the right forum!

First of all, clear tail lights and altezza tail lights make me want to vomit when I see them. I have never seen an attractive pair of clear tail lights on an Integra before. That is called being a rice boy if you spend your money on bullshit like that. I noticed you don't have an exhaust or probably anything under the hood. Go to the appearance forum for questions on how to make your car even uglier than it already is.

clear tail light LENSES may or may not fly well with your local authorities (i.e. potentially legal), but if they light up white when you press your brake, that is most definitely illegal.

Don't post if you don't read all the post previous to this one dumbass. I already said I am not doing any engine mods until my warranty runs out. I am also getting sick and tired of fawcking people on this forum flaming everyone who does something cosmetic to their ride. If that's the case, make sure you flame EVERYONE who has anything other than a completely stock car dumbass. I never asked for anyone's opinion on my car, just does anyone know where to get a clear brake light. I am making my car look different than every other teg around here THAT'S ALL!!. I am not making it into a drag car with twin turbo or a race car and I am not going to spend $1000 cdn to get a exhaust that is louder than a ******* jet, so stop dissing everyone who just wants a nice looking ride. One thing we can agree on is Integra's are nice rides. I am not stupid, I don't believe getting clear taillights, 17's and lowering it (are 17's and lowering all right with you?? Am I allowed or is that too ricey too??) are going to make my car go faster, just look different. I have a 2000 SE with 140 hp (with a CAI) so I know what I have isn't much but I don't care. There are distinct differences between someone who has done a few cosmetic mods to their car and someone who is riced out. Do you see a crazy paint job, stupid stickers all over the car, neon lights....no. My car is silver and I want to keep that theme.

BTW I am painting the black door strips silver. It comes like that on the GS and up models, does that mean they are rice??? If you bought anyone of those cars you paid for it the price of it so by your definition they are ALL rice except for the basic model. Genius.

If anyone can move this thread to cosmetic/apperance go right ahead, I agree it is in the wrong forum. Sorry.

Well we can all agree that rice is highly frowned upon here @ honda-tech.

Don't take offense to others, beefpigs, you're a newbie so you'll have to get used to people around here expressing their opinions.
