Smile Altezza Lights

I'm looking for suggestions for which type type of Altezza tailight to put in my 97 Integra. Styles, brands etc. would be much appreciated. Also, what are the best web sites for finding these types of things? Cost, reliability etc.
Thanks

I'll give you my .02 on why nobody likes them.

- Kid turns 16, kid gets car. Kid sees fast and the furious, wants a "sweet" looking car. Kid buys Altezzas, a 5" exhaust tip, and a "NOS" steering wheel cover. Kid suddenly thinks he is the hottest new thing in town...Rice!

I think those type of kids ruined them...to be quite honest. Ricochet said it best with his picture, IMO.

Hey...each person has their own definition of what "cool" is. Who's to say Altezza's aren't cool? I don't like them...but if he wants to get him, then that is his choice...because honestly, I don't care what kind of taillights he puts on his car, as long as he likes them!

Mostly true. They're very played out because they're inexpensive, and it's the first thing you see on a lot of cars even before they have an exhaust. A taillight which lights up and does its job is all one should ever need. Hypocritically, mine are tinted black with Nightshades (minus the white signal portion), but that was $10/can and you don't EVER see that on a hatch.

Hey you can't make everybody happy, so get the lights if you like them. I personnaly don't think there is anything wrong with them.

Just a thought to remeber, "There are more people out there that say its stupid to do anything with your stock car(swaps,exhaust,etc) then there are that say altezza's are horrible." Does that make it hypocritical for somebody with engine mods to say altezza's are bad? It's all just in the eye of the beholder i suppose.

Rant rant rant,Anyway enough of the heavy shit, I believe you can do whatever you want to your car as long as you treat it like the finely tuned peice of machinery it is!

Um no, getting a swap is the best thing you can do with a stock car and I'd rather have an exhaust on my DX than altezza's... go jerk off to super street or some other ricer porn and come back when you know what you're talking about.

Before i even type anything else i just wanted to point out that my post was pretty ez going and i was just making an observation. But of course somebody always has to rain on the parade.

I said there are a hell of a lot more people out there that look down on moding your engine then think poorly of altezza's.

Lol you seriously are an idiot. Learn to read before you try to critique my post.

Edit: I just had to add this in. I would love it if you could find where in my post that i said a swap was good or bad for your stock car? I would feel really stupid if I were you right now. Seriously though were the did you come up with ricer porn? I guess i should feel insulted but im not even sure how you would do somthing like that. "Oh man check out those APC wipers they are so hot!"

Opinions are like assholes, everybody's got one and yours isnt worth shit.

You must feel pretty stupid if you can't even understand what you just posted. And who cares what everyone thinks, it's a known fact that altezzas on a stock car make you a complete moron. If you post on any forum or talk to anybody besides a mexican, they'll tell you the same.

Buying lights for a stock honda isn't treating it like the "finely tuned piece of machinery it is," which by the way, they aren't. If they were, my air/fuel meter wouldn't bounce around, it would stay on quiescent stoic.
