2002 Accord Tail light covers

My sister had a 2002 Accord and I saw some pics a while ago of an Accord that had some tail light covers on it. Any of you guys have tail light covers or know where I can see some? Thanks

Covers are ghetto man. If she has a sedan, take out the orange box leaving only the red and clear. If she has a coupe, I'd have them professionally smoked to the tint you want. I've seen that on a black coupe, looked great.
yeah its a coupe. and they were actually taillights. She's not into the whole makng her car look good. She doesn't want anyone to steal it she says..thanks anyways

well taking the orange box isn't illegal, but as long as you replace the bulbs with amber, if not, you can get tickets like my, that's y now I'm with Altezza :) but luckly i found some cheap amber bulbs on AutoDynamic.com they're like $8/pair, i think they're the same with hyper whites... so i'm going to put my custom red/clear tail later.....
as far as taking them... i forgot, there's a place that show you how to do it on 5th gen accord... it's basiclly the same procedures on 01-02 accords.....
here's some examples....





yes i had hyper white bulbs on there... got ticketed once :) and replace them with stock bulbs, which is clear.... and still got ticketd... i just hate cops in cities around me... i've been driving on that hyper for like 6 months in my area, no problem, but when i went to the cities around my place... got pull over every time... sux...

Those actually look really good!! Nice work!!
dont get covers....don't do it!!!! dont ask why..just DONT...hahaa

just kidding, if its a sedan look for some clear red and whites, or if its the newer models, just take out the orange strip and buy some amber bulbs...

if its a coupe..leave it alone......they look damn sexy from the factory..payce
no altezza's just clearthem
red and clear:D :cool: :D
I have red/clear tails on my sedan and still have the clear bulbs for signals...never had a problem with cops...going on 1.5 years like that.
