JDM has been "rice" ever since things like clock blockers, window air deflectors, false badging, and right hand drive got "cool" ..

actually altezza tail lights are JDM. they originated on the Toyota Altezza (Lexus IS300) as OEM tail lights, as well as the Lexus SUV. Now, whether the "jdm people" like to put altezza tail lights on their Civics, i have no clue. but the trend did in fact originate in japan, and we have toyota to blame for it.

Hey now window deflectors serve a purpose, I used to have them on my Camry and I used them all the time to help ventilate the car in the summer time. I still plan on getting a set for the Integra because I miss being able to leave the windows cracked w/o fear of a summer rain shower popping up.

I will probably buy the WeatherTech ones that fit inside the window channel and can be installed or removed any time, since they don't require mounting tape.
