http://www.jaydm.com has the cheapest deal on Visions around, so if you wanna go the REAL DEAL, buy from them. You'll prolly save $20-30 going with fakes. If you're on a tight budget, theres nothing wrong with painting them with transparent orange paint.

Its all what you want. People in the board will try to knock you for not having the real thing, but last time I checked, the colour amber is the colour amber, and the real lights aren't much better. These are the same people that spend $1500 on rims and then knock people for buying $400 ROTAS. Seems to me like they're the dumb ones, unless they're actually going to USE those expensive rims for track racing instead of bling.

I had some of the old school clears and I painted them and they look good to me. No runs or any of that ****. I have a friend that bought some off EBAY (knock offs) and they look just as good. I cant remember if they were painted or not but they fit good

i've got a pair that i'll sell to you.....they are brand spanken new

and yes these are the real visions, not the fakes, they do have the VISION logo on the side of the lens.

bought them for my car, but come to find out they don't fit 4 drs, so i guess i got ripped on that one cuz i paid way to much then......my loss is your gain though...

so i got some JDM EG9 stock corners in stead of going vision fakes

IM me if interested can try to get pics for you

Not all fake ones are painted. I got mine for 20 bucks a few years ago, and they're orange plastic, never had any problems with them.

My fake ones looked better than my real ones. The fakes had a deeper tone, but not quite smoked. I scored the real ones after a local shop broke my old ones. Told em I got them shipped from Japan and paid 150, ha. They were bastards anyways.

If you have the money get the real ones, if you are on a budget, like me. Just get the knockoffs, mine look great and haven't leaked once since i got them. Its more for cosmetic purposes, so as long as they don't leak, the quality is there. Oh, don't quote me, but i believe the knock off's are a bit lighter in their color then the real ones.
