90% of "JDM" things on ebay aren't, and that's one of them

No.

JDM EG headlights have no nipples, are clear, and have city light sockets. The corners are clear, but not the "crystal clear" that so many clear corners look like.

Why does it matter if they are or aern't? I swear this bandwagon **** kills me.

roger... you'd think that the plastic is bullet proof by the way they sell their USDM plastic to get almost the exact same thing, or same thing, just from Japan... because it is "better"... Its plastic... same the world over...

But since they aren't JDM, that means they aren't "real nice"? Why does it matter? That's the point Ricey was trying to make, and I agree with him.

I think I get what your saying, but aren't the real JDM EG headlamps glass? Or is it the USDM ones are glass and the JDM ones are plastic?

I think the ones with the nipples are the glass ones and the flat ones are plastic.

BTW, JDM sucks.

You're not the only one. I can't wait for the next bandwagon to pop up so everybody feels like a douche for spending the outrageous amounts of money they do on worthless crap because it's "JDM".

No, they are made in Taiwan. I had a set. I didn't use the corners that came with them.

JDM parts are nice because they are OEM, made by honda, and look nice and subtle and that is all there is to it. Do those look like something that honda would make?
