It's original on JDM cars... It's both blink and parking light there...
But I do want total clear blinklights there.... But they are hard to get in europe, like every other parts to this car....

I think with those style bumpers, your going to have to make your own clear bumper light covers. Those bumpers looks simlilar to the 86-87 USDM bumpers and the lcovers look like there are held on with external screws like the 86-87 USDM bumpers.

Thats what I had to so with the older style bumper I had ones on, now its the newer style I have one currently.

i only have one problem with your car. fix the fog lights. not only are they in an ugly spot, but they arnt even facing forward. i know you say your gonna fix them so its not a big deal. i like what you did with your trunk. im doing somthing simular to reduce vibration.

I'm in the military now, and have been here since january, so I haven't done so much with my car since then.

But from now on I'm one week in and one week out, so I'm gonna do a lot in near future... Including change engine to B20a with turbo and intercooler since I've blown my old engine...

Geeeeeez...actually, keep it gold, I like that color. Infact, keep it totally the same with the B20a inside...oh yes :)

If I keep it gold, then should I paint my 17" white rims some other color?

But if he had the 88-89 usdm bumper the fogs would fit nicer into the cut-outs because the angle isn't as bad as the 86-87.
Also the turn signals would be easier to clear out.

then send a bumper with turn signals over to norway for me...
My accord is a '88, the bumpers are the same from 86 to 89 in europe....
