Glad you dig the car!

As far as the hk ducts go, the quality isn't terrible- I thought they would just fit right in. They tell you that in order to fit them on US cars, you have to do some MINOR modifications. I thought they just meant filling in the bumperettes- no idea they meant cutting the bumper cavity but since that's consistent with the real Techart stuff- that's kind of a wash. The signal lights don't fit w/o shaving the tabs on them and the fog lights have overspray inside them- you get what you pay for.

My biggest issue with them was the lack of support which is what everyone else seems to dislike, but when it comes to Ebay, it's rare to find someone who isn't out to get you. The lights and ducts are one thing- they are small and flaws can be hidden. The splitters and bumpers are to be determined. Maybe someone can chime in.

The seller also lists rear tail-lights with clear turn signals...I may check these out as one of mine is worn and cracking. Has anybody purchased these?

David,

Yah, I thought about them myself but went with real thing!

Go ask/order from Sunset with part#s. (NO AFFILIATION)
I've just ordered pair of euro(amber) rear tail lights for lot less than either Automotion or Pelican! SWEET DEAL!

LOL!

Over here, people upgrade to the all red rear lights! If you asked there are probably a few UK Rennlisters that have done this and would give them away.

Cheers,

David

Allill,

All I can say is that Pelican was asking for $189 and as you know Sunset was way below that.
email them and they will quote you a price.
