Default Stupid question...

Altezza tails......evryone's bad mouthin them now but i'm in toronto and, although there are a lot, there is not an overabundance like in cali (canadian dollar makes them a lil more expensive here). I hear all this slammin, and i'm a lil weary bout puttin them on my silver civic, even though i think they'll look sweet. Any opinions. Thanks guys, and be nice, i'm jus adskin for opinions, not someone to make me cry

I don't think that is a stupid question, but I guess maybe you titled it to minimize flames (which I'm sure will come!)... Altezza's seem to really **** of Acura "purists", who consider it sacrilege to put them on import cars. Myself, I think some Altezza styles look good on some cars and some don't. The car's color, and other body mods can also affect how they aesthetically appear.... I have the Carbon Fiber ones on my FBP 'R, and I'm happy with them. They look sharp, compliment the car, and don't stand out that much. I saw the totally whited out ones on another black GSR the other day, and thought his looked like crap!... But to each his own; whatever YOU think looks good is how you should go...

If you like them, go for it, who cares what people say. Are you getting the old or new version Altezzas? I think the new ones look pretty sweet on silver civics.

I think they look cool on silver cars. They throw too much glare on darker cars and stand out a little too much. At least they work. Those white taillights don't show any red when drivers hit the brakes.

Good luck and post pictures when and if you install them.
