Thanks,
nope Thats how they came. Out of the box and onto the car!
I didn't want the black look, more the smoked look. And this did the trick

I had these and really liked them. Going to get new ones soon when I get around to ordering them.. they were the fake CF. The brake light on the side was different than what you normally see on the altezzas.

Hey guys,
In following with the post, my damn MSP rolled cause i was stupid and didn't put it in gear while getting gas. Long story short, rear tail is blown to pieces and bumper is mashed up. Looking into getting replacement lights. In comparing the bulb layout on the stock to the aftermarket altezzas, it would appear the bulb locations are different at least on my 03 MSP. The turn and brake are in the center, whereas on the aftermarket ones, they are at the bottom. Is this just a matter of rerouting some wires to put them in the appropriate holes, or is there more to it than this? Looking at pricing its like $100 for single new stock taillight, and it would be different cause the MSP has the pink tinting on the tail. Only reason im looking into altezzas is really cost-savings. Anyone have any pics of them on a black MSP? I am thinking about the CF ones. I dont want them to be so loud they look obnoxious, I like the stock look, but its damn near impossible to find the MSP pink-tint taillights at a reasonable price. Ideas? Anyone?

all you have to do is unplug the bulb with plug and put them into the new holes of the aftermarket ones.the wires will reach even if they are not in the same location as stock.
BTW if you really need or want a pair of stock MSP tails I might sell ya mine. I don't like the look of them and will never put them back on.

I agree with a few others on here when I say the red-lense "altezzas" look best. The chrome ones scream RICE!
