Got around to successfully installing the replica JDM Modelista tail lights and while I was at it I went to Golden Gate park and took some pictures. I would've taken more but the park sheriffs were closing off the road with those metal gate thingies so I just hurried up and got out. Hope you enjoy

so why did you decide against the side skirts?

well i thought real hard about the kaminari lip kit (front, side, and rear) and i somewhat came to the conclusion that the seibon ones wont really look that great with it. so far no one seems really interested in the price I'm offering for it so I might just end up keeping it and dropping it on the car with the kaminari front lip and rear lip.

I wired them according to this link

Just be sure to prevern any of the connector pins from hitting one another...That's how i blew out two fuses last time....my wiring was correct but the meal was touching each other due to the fact that I didnt buy that wiring connector from japanparts.com

the connector dosen't help witht he replicas. The wiring colours are a bit different from what CC said. I know he posted the proper sequence somewhere.

The fog lights I bought from Jimcat and it's wired to my parking lights.

Well that's the wiring table i followed and it's the same way that ChinoCharles wired his to when i showed him that link. Both of us didn't use that connector but he striped both sides of the connector pins (taillight and car side) and used male and female connectors while I on the other hand just took the connector pins out of the the taillight housing and plugged them into the stock car housing and used electrical tape.

haha yup i know. but hey, they're blue and they match my cars theme so it's all good. and wheels ARE wheels no particular wheel belongs to a type of car people just associate a certain design with certain cars hehe ^^
