In a nut shell yes, the 98+ lights are all red except the white for the reverse. Also after installing my 98 + taillights I noticed the black lining around my lights more. See picture

 

So it wouldnt be a problem if i were to get 98+ lights and swap them out?

Nope that's what I did I have a 95 dc2 tails and decided I wanted 98+. There's a write up on team-integra.net how to do the swap out.

 

imo i like the 94-97 tails more, but yeah pretty much the difference is the amber turn signals

 

would i have to clear coat them after that?

hope these help you. i can take some pics of my painted tails for you if you would like.

 

yea sure dude, that would be sick, thanks for the link

 

they need to be redone, they were painted at the end of last summer. sorry for the shitty quality, its a $50 camera

 

nah dont worry about it man, im headed to the store right now, thanks for the pics

 

I love the all red tails.

 

they're hot

 

Have you seen the writeup on the DIY JDM 98+ tails on T-I?

Pretty cool, if you wanna be different from all the normal US integras.

Light red border with the amber instead of all red or dark red border with amber.

 

how do i pop off the the colored lens from the black backing?

 

nvm, im jsut gonna paint on the outside

 

yea you can just paint on the outside, make sure you clean them first to get dust/particles off. spray thin coats, allowing about 10mins to dry between each coat.

did you use clearcoat? cuz um.. it looks dull anyway.

im asking because i plan on painting a set of taillights with a thin coat of smoke.

 

yea i only used one coat of clear, and it was painted almost a year ago. it does look very dull. i think im doing them again this weekend, so hopefully i can get some pics up of what the look like freshly done.

 

hmm.. i wonder if im better off finding some smoke vinyl overlay..

 

here we go boys and girls...



or vinyl it....I painted the insides of my 94's and vinyl it...

oem 98 on top, my diy remod 94's on the bottom.


or turn ur 94's into 98+ jdm's like i did..



i'm the pioneer in 94 tails retromodding!!!

 

have you guys seen these yet?? i hate to admit it, but the ricer inside me is screaming for joy..

im seriously thinking about buying the black ones, smoking them a little and slapping them on my thunder gray RS.

 

All reds rock the house...

sorry man but those all red don't look consistent so wouldn't even consider them all reds. I guess if someone is gonna go all red ur better off vinyl or painting off the reverse on a set of 98s'. props for the job tho.

 

you got a nice dc
