Suggestions on new headlights, bumper lights, and tail lights
So i just put all my new lights on my 95 Accord (projector headlights, clear bumper lights, and altezza tail lights) and realized I didn't like the look of any of it at all. I just wanted other people's opinions and advice on what I should do to the headlights, bumper lights, and tail lights because I'm not feeling any of them.
Here's what the car looks like with everything on it. And yes I know it looks "ricey," but your comments are not needed.
Projector headlights and APC bumper lights
TYC altezza tail lights
ANy advice on what I should do instead of this "ricey" stuff would be greatly appreciated.

Can't beat clean and functional AND oem...that's what I'd do.

Already got the OEM tai lights. Black housing headlights are nice. Bumper lights?

I like those ones better. I would get the real stanleys off the Si-R Accord, but they're hard to find and when you do find them, they're really expensive. Now to E-mail the companies I bought my "ricey" headlights and tail lights off of and ask for my money back.

Well if worse comes to worse, what do you guys think of the first set i posted?
or ?
Edit: Sucks that the only placs to get the REAL JDM ones or some look-a-likes, like the 2nd pair, can only be found on ebay.

no, you can get the real ones at JDM importers like JDMShit, JDMLand, PasswordJDM and probably some ohers. I know for sure JDMLand has them, I just checked, $434.99

$434.99 is a little pricy for me.
Edit: JDMShit has them "brand new" for $700. So expensive.

I knew the REAL ones wouldn't be cheap at all. Maybe I'll just get the look-a-like ones, try to find them somewhere other than ebay too. Anything better than my riced out headlights and tail lights.

The only fake ones I've found that look like the REAL ones are on ebay (the 2nd set pictured above) and then I've found some others, they just have a euro corner lights (the 1st set pictured above).

Re: (TouringAccord)
That's true. On ebay the fake look-a-likes are $185 +$45 shipping (kinda outrageous shipping cost). I could see that being a shipping cost from Japan or Malasya, but they're in the US.
