Ok good. I thought I got ripped with the whole corner thing. Yeah I decided not to do it to my stanleys. I really dont want to mess them up and are going to order some depos soon. Also, on your spoiler. I noticed that you used to have the wings west one. Did you take it off and get a mugen one or just get it repainted?

I got a real Mugen CF rear wing now.....sold the wings west one to a buddy of mine in florida...

this is what the ebay seller said regarding the amber corners.

"It is not paint, I guarantee it. Paint cannot crack like pic on the
bottom of the auction. Orange lens is removable. Leaving the original
clear corner lens."

those aren't true JDM. True JDM headlight aren't twopiece, they are ONEPIECE healights. and very very very rare. 5th gen JDM headlights are the rarest to find ever. and they are just as rare in japan too. u can't find to many of those. u can however find 4th gen "onepiece" or 6th gen "onepiece" doesn't that suck?!:madfawk:

5th gen JDM's are ALL 2-piece. there is no such thing as true Stanley JDM 1-piece for the 5th gen.

the headlights and corners are real, but the corners are sprayed a gay amber color to attract people who think amber = jdm = cool, so they gotta buy it.

Yeah, Like the said the jdm headlights for the 5th gen are 2-peice. The euro's are one piece. Also there 6th gen in japan looks way different then ours so they wouldent even fit. I have a pair of real JDM stanleys and you can take the corners off when ever you want.
