This is true. Every APC product I have ever seen is a POS.

If even your most expensive aftermarket JDM items have fitment and other issues just imagine the beauty in these fine products!
Here in Northern California we don't call APC "rice" but "ARROZ" which would be spanish for rice and you know where I am going with that one don't you???
None of my asian friends or those of my son's younger generation sport the APC stuff and calling it rice is offensive to them!
Now call Spoon, CWest, Buddy Club etc. rice and I'll have me a BIG Bowl of It!

Should be Illegal
Besides being completely heinous, they produce an unsafe low amount of light. I sometimes can decipher between the running lights and brake lights. It amazes me that all the altezzas, APC included found on every other honda on the road are DOT approved?
Unfortunatelty, I had APC carbon fiber look tailights on my 92 suburban. They were ricey, but the carbon fiber didn't look that bad. However, they were expensive and leaked after a few months. They caused me more trouble than good. I agree Killian Maynard, they should be illegal.
