JDM Mitsubishi Evolution VIII MR Taillight Housings
(Flat Black)




JDM Evolution IX MR Taillights Housings
(Glossy Black)


The only difference is the 8 JDM lights are flat black while the 9 JDM lights have glossy black. You have to see them in person to see the difference. I like the 9 JDM lights because they are rare.

I would get the Jdm 9 MR since you have a 9 because the chrome black would match your headlights.

I personally run the 7 tails because I have a WW Evo 9.
Here in San Diego every Evo has the JDM 8 lights. Personally if I were to get them i would go with the 9 JDM because they are really rare here. I've seen them both and prefer the 9 JDM.

But the 7 tails are orgasmic on black and white Evos.

^7 tails are by far the best tails from them all. But like I said if you have white go 7. Ironically all my friends from south san diego run their WW with 7 tails.
