NOPE def not without a bodyshop and some bondo , 02 to 04's have a circular bottom around the lights and the 05's are just straight across

How do you red them out? With a vinyl or something?

You must be new to the scene, or the scene has just changed.....Back in the day....They sold paint that was red and clear that you used to paint your lights...If not I just went to my local hobby store and bought Translucent Candy Apple Red ....Redding out your lights was an old trend that went out...I guess its making a comeback.....or something....

Yeah I remember this back in the days mid 90's It's making a comeback with the rsx owners I don't really see much of the red out tailights on other cars other then the rsx

my del Sol tails are redded out with paint, but they aren't as smooth as oem, nothing on my new rsx will look home done.

05 RSX tails are hot, matter a fact the whole back end is hot. Although the 02 RSX is a better car I liked the looks of the DC2 a little more, now that the 05 came out theres no comparison in looks. 05 to me is what the GSR was in 94, the hottest sport compact in the game. If I was to pick up an 02 Type S I would do the 05 front and rear bumpers. I think the little changes made a big difference in the appearence of the car.

02= Hot car
05= Super Hot

Took the words right outta my mouth, I can't afford an 05 right now but if I got an 02 RSX-S first thing I would save up for his the new headlights, bumpers and taillights.

When the RSX was introduced it seem nice but there was something about it that wasn't right. With the introduction of the 05 its perfect, its SUPER HOT! They look like two different cars, 05 RSX-S is by far my favorite.
