Painted Spoon lip, painted OEM side skirts... But what's the lip/spats on the back? VS1 stylee, but not big enough?
EDIT:
:think:
:idea: It's the RRD spats that I'm wanting isn't it.
:roll:
That'll be why I think they look good :facepalm:

Stupidest thing I never bought was the back bumper and spats from Project Ex when @JDM-BB4 had them for sale :cry:
I just didn't rate the chances of the bumper posting down the country well.


I LOVE the rear lights on that one too, incidentally. Look like the same ones on @honda-hardy's mrs, except these ones have black surrounds instead of chrome. I'd found the chrome stylee but never seen black surrounds before and that's exactly what I've been looking for!

Nope, got those already.
That's not a de-tango'd OEM, that's a pukka aftermarket one.
Look at the crystal type plastic and different shape brake light inside the plastic.

De-tango'd OEM;

Yep, am aware of those ones, they're the ones hardy's mrs has.

Not the same as on those silver and black ludes.

Chrome surround (which is the bit I'm particularly not keen on), the crystal plastic is even more transparent and the bottom clear (reverse/indicator) part wraps right round instead of being the original size.

Ok, by some detective work following the 'part reviews' on some of the ludes up there that have them fitted (3 of them :troll: ) I think they are those Anzo lights that have been sprayed over with red translucent paint, by this guy;
http://www.pro-fit.ne.jp/diary/2010/mem ... =&session=
So they either started out as these;
http://www.andysautosport.com/honda/199 ... 31338.html
(have the right suround)
or these;
http://www.andysautosport.com/honda/199 ... 66147.html
(have the wrong surround but right chrome backing inside)
