I would like to buy some tail lights lamps for my 98 accord.
I'm asking for advise on which ones fit better and most importantly don't leak.

JDM black tail lights
or
Altezza tail lights

Thanks alot guys

 

any type of aftermarket tail light will leak

 

If you seal them correctly they will not leak. I would either go with black tails or stock.

 

Yeah I like how the black ones look. But besides the leak, which ones are better built? Any one has this lights??

neither

 

Keep your stock taillights you will be happier in the long run.

 

I guess the aftermarket tails lights are really that bad.
Thank you guys for the input.

 

Why dont you just tint or black out you tailights if you're going for that look. The reason why people dont like aftermarket tailights is because they dont really look that good, and because they dont fit into the sockets that well and leave gaps. But it depends on which ones you get, some fit really well, just like stock. The leaks are no problems because you could just seal them before you install. Some people dont seal them, which in the end, taking the lens off, cleaning, then sealing them doesnt really justify it.

 

How do I tint or black out the tailights?
Materials?

 

look for something called VHT nightshade. you can get it from summit racing, or nopi i think......... its like spray paint but not exactly the same. There is a little prep work to make it look badass but not hard. Mostly just cleaning and sanding. After you find the level of darkness you like just clear coat that baby and your ballin.

I had APC's on my accord and i had them on there for about 2 years. Thats including the tornado time. They never cracked or leaked. So i can say they were worth buying. I know TYC is also a really good brand.
