I'm not picky as it isn't a performance part. As long as it isnt blatantly a bad product then why pay double/triple the price? I got depos which I replaced JDM evo viiis. I like the style better and easier to find. Clean evo viis arent easy to get looking like new. If they are, you are going to get raw dawged.

If you want non-OE, get the depo ones. they're they only off-brand ones that look like the evo 7 lights anyhow

When I get on a PC I'll send pics. They look clean and I'm happy with them. No defects that I am aware of.

Unless you're going for show car or picky about brand name parts, you will be happy.

Nothing wrong with that mind frame. I get picky with certain parts if budget allows it. Just bought a house, big reno and 3 kids so its situational as well. Just a disclaimer.

Is it me or the jdm/oem ones looks more reddish/pink? The depo ones look more darker red. I kinda like oem ones not just because their oem but they look better to me. But i also hear nice reviews for the depos. If anyone can post more of depo ones that will be great!

jdm evo 7 tails are a clear lens with a red housing, that's why the housing itself is red on them

most of the knock-offs are a normal black housing and a red lens, but the depo i'm not sure. the depo lights on the silver car posted above look pretty damn similar to evo 7 lights but you can tell from the border of the tail light that the housing is black

In the US it'll be tough but a set in Aus is like $120-$180 depending on if you need to pay postage
