JDM sidemarkers...clean? - Honda Prelude Forum

SlowSi · 03-10-2003, 12:18 PM

Do you think JDM sidemarkers on the fenders and the brake lights on the rear bumper will flow together? Seems like a lot of lights on the car, lol. Anyone have profile shots of their cars with it done?

Thanks!

I personally like the look of JDM sidemarkers. They would have to be true Honda amber sidemarkers though, not cheap knock-offs. As for the rear bumper light, it is only present on Euro-Spec cars, not JDM.... I dont think it looks clean at all, so if you dont live in a country where it is mandatory to have that light... then I wouldn't put it in.

No no, I was talking about the two rectangular red lights on the sides of the rear bumper. Not that red fog light thing like British cars. They light up when you turn your headlights on.

That car looks nice though with USDM lights and sidemarkers.

I still think it would look better with a JDM rear bumper.

if you are gonna do the JDM front sidemarkers... it would look better with the rear sidemarkers shaved or a JDM bumper.

???Can anyone else see the picture now??? i see an X

brendon2k · 03-11-2003, 12:31 PM

Everyone seems to like a clean look then wants to put on these which make no sence to me. I do not think they look bad or anything but I wouldn't want to put them on.

I will post pics of my Lude this weekend. I filled the rear bumpers and I installed jdm sidemarkers. I think it looks a hell of a lot better. The lights in the rear bumper are fugly

JDM Preludes have the sidemarker because the outer front bumper lense is only a reflector, right? Maybe I could just take the bulb out of that one so it doesn't look odd when two turn signals on one side are flashing?

SlowSi · 03-12-2003, 10:42 AM

^^ is that true about the outer lense and the sidemarker?

willmbrk · 03-12-2003, 03:03 PM

You also have to remember that the JDM outer lense looks different than aftermarket clear lenses. I will post pics of the JDM lenses as well as JDM sidemarkers and filled bumpers

SlowSi · 03-13-2003, 02:00 PM

Aren't the 94-96 JDM outer lenses clear anyway? The USDM ones have reflectors in them also...just a small hole for the bulb. I wasn't planning on getting aftermarket clear ones either.

Could you post them Friday??

SlowSi · 03-20-2003, 09:20 AM

What happened to those pics willmbrk?

Satan_SRV · 03-20-2003, 09:53 AM

JDM sidemarker....how pointless....

eu4ik · 03-20-2003, 12:37 PM

no sir, i dont like em.

too many lights for my taste.

willmbrk · 03-20-2003, 06:28 PM

Sorry all for the lateness. I just got a new digital camera from my work. I will post pics first thing Saturday morning.

4bidden · 03-20-2003, 06:34 PM

I'm thinking that I will shave the signal on the rear bumper and add JDM front sidemarkers when I do my bodywork.

JDM Amber sidemarkers on a CW car = yummy

willmbrk · 03-20-2003, 08:45 PM

You will like them. I actually will post pics when I get home tomorrow evening.
