I have my grill meshed too. I like it either way but my "H" is on the mesh instead of the hood. The signals look okay, how did you attach it to the lens?

the taillights are cool. the front mesh would take a little getting used to, but i think it would look great in real life when the blinkers flash. but overall, your car looks better. keep it up

Yeah, the signals still work... I tried taking a pic of them, but it didnt come out too well cause its dark out now... i'll try again during the day. I know it maybe a little 'ricey' but I gotta be different somehow! I think they look better in person than in the pics.

All I did was wrap the mesh around the front part of the lens... and flattened it just around the lens so they would fit in the car ok and not screw up the paint.

well....i used to have them all in the original places with a red bulb in the brake light but i got tired of having pink tail lights......tried the LED thing those sucked ass, so i moved my brake lights to where the turn signals were and moved the turn signals to the brake lights, i am using all stock bulbs, no colored. you have to do a little custom cutting of the little locking thing on the tail lamp. i used an xacto knife and cut out the little slots to make them fit because they are different patterns. obtw i bought the tail lights as all clears and taped them off and sprayed the top two portions with testors candy apple red translucent model paint i got from the hobby store. in that picture they only have two coats on them. since i took that picture i put about 4 more coats on them and they are a darker red, and are more glossy. hope that helps.

Looks good, but it'd look a lot better if you shaved the Honda logo off the hood.

well the brake light bulb is a double filament bulb which has the parking light and the brake light all in one, the only thing on the bottom is just the turn signal, the brakelight/parking light in where the turn signals used to be and the backup lights are stillint he stock location...they are red but oh well..it doesn't bother me cause i don't make it a habit to drive in reverse everywhere.
