exactly...i wasn't too sure if they were stock or not...and i completely agree that its pretty pointless to spend a lotta money to make your car different when the items you buy are really close to stock. anyway, i kinda like them.

[p]Are these the ones that are called "Jag Altezzas"?[p]If so, i dont think that those look all that bad.

Yeah, they're the Jag altezzas. The difference is very subtle. In relation to spending money on performance mods, I spent less on the taillights than on the short ram intake I got and there was also a VERY subtle difference there. For the amount that some people have they can only do small stuff and most performance mods aren't all that cheap. So they go for appearance. People just want to customize THEIR car to THEM. Alright, I'm done defending altezzas. Thanks everyone, you were open minded and we altezza owners are very appreciative.

per the above post BITTER!!! [p]I actually like the Jag Altezzers because they are better looking then the plain old looking stock ones and they don't look to Altezzera. Also they kind of look like the '04 lights.[p]

Hey man, I just get tired of defending my tastes. Did I come across as bitter? That's not what I was going for...

[p]hahahah..ho chi's avatar looks like ho chi's daddy! anyway, i don't think you came across as bitter and you defended your point well. although i don't agree(about the altezzas) i think you should keep on defending them if you like em'.

Rogue I appreciate your empathy. I would assume the same goes for HoChi, you guys seem to have a lot of the same thoughts.

[p]Dude, you have altezzas? I am never speaking to you again! I am only kidding, I actually like the altezzas that WRXBen has on his WRX. I think they look pretty cool, just my opinion though...

Americanese gets some points for that! 10 VC points (thats Viet Cong). Uh yeah so, I think if you had to blow some money on the car, and you wanted looks and performance wasnt gonna do much, definitly go for those ganador mirrors! Those things are so bad ass, i love those. I just cant bring myself to pay 450 for mirrors though...

Thanks Swapmaster, actually I'm going back to stock for the winter since the high quality altezzas I have will probably crack.
