Default Taillight Swap?

A buddy of mine has a '95 Lx, and I have a '96 Ex. She is going to be selling her car soon, and she said she would sell me her taillights for cheap. They are expensive taillights, i believe she said they were about $160 new. They are chrome on top and red on the bottom. The only problem is that I don't know if they will fit on my car. By just looking at the rears of the cars side by side, it seems like her taillights are a bit smaller than mine. Does anybody know if her taillights would fit on my car, either with or without mild mods?

Also, if her taillights won't fit, i plan on blacking out my taillights instead. I haven't really looked much, and that's basically because i don't really have the time to search. Does anybody know where i can find either some tint film for my tails? I will probably just go with a 20% smoke tint, but it's not sure yet. I will only blackout the tails if her lights won't fit. Thanks in advance.

No they wont fit, they're a different generation (5th gen vs. 6th gen), althoguh with some customization maybe, but not really worth it IMO. People on here who blakc out their taillights use the NightShade spray alot of hte time. You can buy it off ebay and spray a few coats on the outside of your tails. PM addiction2bass if you want more info on tinting tailights, hes always glad to help haha

Alright, sounds good man thanks. I didn't think they would fit, cuz like i said - we parked our cars next to each other and they looked like different sizes. But yeah, i might message him about the tint. Thanks for your help
