Need Suggestions for Tail/Headlights
I came across two taillights for an 03 wrx and they do seem very nice.
1st:http://www.viniati.com//0203-subaru-...6.html?image=0
2nd:http://www.viniati.com//0203-subaru-...4.html?image=0
I think these taillights look badass, but only problem is that im worried on how they look with it installed. Anyone have some pics?
As for headlights go, i like the style of the JDM ones.

For the tails I would only switch'em out for the 05 style tails. They are the best looking tails. Here is a link to a pic of them

As for those headlights you listed. Those are not the jdm headlights. Those are the usdm 2003 wrx headlights painted black. I did this myself and think it looks great. Here is a link on how to do this to your headlights.
Summary: Keep your tails unless you do the 2005 tails, this will also require you to change the bumper though.
Do the blacked out headlight look. I personally think it looks good.
Here is the link for how to black out your headlights.

+1 for what Stealth said.
if you want to buy new lights go with JDM/EDM's (the real ones, not the fake ones) or Morettes if you can find them. Stay away from anything on eBay.
Tail lights.....whats wrong with the stock tails?
I'm guessing from your wheel thread you just got the car and want to mod it ASAP....but you should take a step back for a few months and observe what other people have done with their Subarus, not with their Hondas/Acuras.

I would take a step back as well and figure out what your interested in doing to the car
Here are some things to keep in mind.
1. Performance: Do I want more power and go down the rd. of exhaust, tuning, etc?
If so, then i would first look into getting exhaust components such as a uppipe, downpipe and catback. Or go a different route and get suspension such as coilovers or sway bars, anything but tein springs.
2. Visual: Do you want your car to just look really cool? If so then start looking into the DIY headlight mod and the 05 rear conversion and some wheels (just not chrome or rims you would see on an escalade).
3. Performance/Visual: If you want both, then do some research and look at what kind of money you want to be spending and figure out what mods will fit your budget.
Hope this helps
