Honda this, Honda that...blah blah blah

I'm not a big fan of Euro Altezza Whatever tail lights because they look bad, but make the car fast and who cares. Hell, I've seen a purple Lamborghini, but nobody gives him lip 'cause he can never lose a race. So Performance and then Looks. Just my 2 cents. And why all the hostilities and anger (yes, I'm looking at Static and Stolon) Can't we all just get along?

Hostile? Anger??? I've only SLIGHTLY touched the tip of the ice berg w/ this sheiot... Besides, it all spawns from the OH so intellectual issue of these damn things on cars other than hondas. ok so let's leave the hondas out of this then. Altezzas on mustangs, F-150's, and what ever else... All fine and well, they are american by design, they need all the help they can get. (not really but it sounded good) BUT... this car comes from european design, it even screams european sedan. How many acutal european sedans do you see w/ euro lights? I can't recall any. So why put them on a european inspired car. And another thing, why even call them euro lights? maybe they should be called asian lights, it seems to be more prevalent to call them by what they are represented on... Besides. some vehicles actually are benefited by the use of these aweful things but that doesn't make it where I would actually like it even more... And back on the issue about making cars look like hondas. It's all purely analytical, based on personal opinions. And that's fine... WHATEVER... I'm done talking on this subject. MOVING ON TO A TOPIC MORE THOUGHT PROVOKING, ONE THAT DOESN'T KILL BRAIN CELLS AS I READ IT...

oh yea Zum *high five* and I am going to have to agree with stolon on this cause this is making me tired just reading it

Finally this dumb arguement is over. Was wondering how long it was going to take ya'll to realize how pointless it was to argue with kermithefrog and jiggajerry, its like arguing with a brick wall. This is what needs to be done to anyone who thinks euro lights look good on domestic cars.
This is all I have to say on this whole subject.

It's over?????? There is still another one out there.....

Mr. Frog and Mr. Jigga have know Idea who there messing with if they decide to keep this sheiot going on. If they dont end it know I am going to just let it all go loose and give them a peice of my mind (a bigger peice). Its like stolon said "I havent even began to touch base on what I think of this subject"

If you want real "euro" lights, look at BMWs. All red, with clear/white for turn signal and back-up. With the reflectors that our cars have, it would be nice to have the bottom part (reflector) of the side lamps cleared out, covered with a white lens, and put an amber bulb in there. If I'm confusing you, tell me, I'll see if I can get a picture of what I mean...like others have said, this is a EUROPEAN car, lets stick with things that have EUROPEAN roots. Last time I checked, Altezzas come from Asia, not Europe
