Altezza Gen 1 - Honda Prelude Forum

JoyseeVtec · 06-14-2001, 05:07 PM

What do you guys think about the gen 1 Altezza lights? I thought THESE were the newest for the longest time. They look a lot better than the other ones available for 97+ ludes. And yes, I will do whatever I will be happy with , just like to know the general felling. :finger:

Depends on the color of your car.. silver and the crystal blue, they look good.

I think they look like complete ass...I think all altezza lights look like ass...in fact, if I had an is or an rx, I'd try to change my lights so it would look like a civic.

I really hate the longer altezza's...like the ones on integras, 2 door accords and eclipses.....complete ass.

i like the carbon fiber version of yours better.. but i still prefer stock over altezza

Mugenlude · 06-15-2001, 12:11 PM

i think the carbon fiber supra style look better IMO...

And @ night:

yo soccer...
your altezza look darker than mine!!!

how did you do that?

soccer3303 · 06-16-2001, 08:58 AM

well, when i ordered them from NOPI.com, i ordered the smoked ones. BUT they did not come smoked! ive seen pics of the smoked ones and these do not look like them. its just probably the lighting

Anablep · 06-16-2001, 09:26 AM

I have these on my G5 lude. THey look better than the 1 gen altezzas on the prelude, IMO. It took some getting used to seeing the car with them on since I had the car 2 years before getting the taillights.

sorry...as good as your ludes look, I still like the rounder altezza's over the 1st gens and stock over the rounder altezzas.

Those look great soccer!

*has a huge grin across his face*

soccer3303 · 06-17-2001, 04:10 PM

btw, coil, would u recommend the Catz Zeta's? ive thought about doing many things, from buying a retrofit kit, to zeta's, to even going to a salage yard to try and find a wrecked audi or m-b w/ ballasts and all in tact and then modifying, and or mounting them someplace. what can i say, those HID's r just too sexy

coil222 · 06-17-2001, 04:14 PM

HID all the way, I've got zeta now. I saw Malken00's HID, and it was incredible. HID is about 2x the price of Zeta now, not bad IMO.

BTW totally OT, you're the guy I bought the minidisc player from right? Just wanted to say thanks for it again, it was a godsend on vacation, no skips, no batteries to replace.

soccer3303 · 06-17-2001, 04:16 PM

o yea, small world eh? lol. ill have another, even better one up for sale soon. but thats not for a month or two.
