I have had the timing belts changed twice, but not the water pump. I have to get the taillights changed because the left one is cracked, and my car won't pass inspection unless I get them replaced. The new headlights and taillights I got are both black housing.

He can't get 50/50 Si taillights, it's a four door.

If it were my car, I would just get another set of stock tail's. The only aftermarket tail's I don't absolutely hate are these ones:


And when I said black housing headlights, I meant these:

Those tails will work, its just a matter of preference. Some people might bich and call them "ricer" tail lights. If you like them thats all that matters really.

They're just tacky aftermarket taillights. "JDM" is a tag that a lot of eBay sellers use because people seem to think "JDM" means "cool" and it seems it worked on you.

Don't pay to have them installed. It's literally a few nuts per taillight, and a few wiring harness plugs.

Not unless you tell him/her that you want only the timing belt done. If I was him, I would have gotten the timing belt, water pump, PS belt, AC belt, and alternator belt done all at the same time.

lol... then stfu if you don't know what you are talking about.... j/k

OP, if you can, try and return those tails if you like the red and whites that 94civichatchback linked you. Just try and contact the seller who you bought those black ones off of or check out the auction's return policy.
