Altezza's and stock tails are totally different. So are our minds. So to some people they look sweet, and others it looks like poo. I personally wouldnt put them on my car but I do like them. Jasno, check out the jag style tail lights, they look like the 04 tails and fit 02-03. For the leaking issue. Heat up the lights like you would if the headlight black out mod was done (do a search on scoobymods.com) pull the light apart and put some good sealer on the existing areas that have a sealer on it. Maybee add more than needed in spots that wont bee seen to the eye for extra protection. Heat them up again and stick em back together. Sounds harder than it really is. Good luck.

No, proper eyelids are actual plastic pieces that stick on or clip on, if you're refering to how they attach though, it is true that they use double sided adhesive, but as to the material of it, only the ghetto-mod eyelids are vinyl or a "sticker"

Where can you get the good stuff from?
All Jasno999 did was ask a question bout Altezza's. Every time somebody asks something that is considered to be ricey then everybody jumps on the person and attacks the decision for getting the part instead of answering the question.

sorry...but its not cool when the ones who didn't answer the question just go and post all that negativity...

Read carefully: a number of us gave an honest answer to his question.
And for those that didn't, they were merely expressing their opinions, albeit in a slightly immature way.
No biggie right?

I've only seen altezas that leaked and fogged up. They only look good on a select few cars, and those cars really need a lot of other work done to them.

Ok guys.

Nobody answered my question so I will assume there is no answer.

What about side marker air intakes? Who makes those?

Seriously, we answered your question. There are NO well-made Altezza lights aside from the stockers on IS300's and RX300/350's. If someone manufactured that, it would be so expensive that nobody would buy it, citing that it's so much more expensive than APC, the most "famous" maker of it. Unfortunately, most Altezza buyers don't care so much about the quality of their parts. Sorry to be so blunt
