Just because you never seen it before, it doesn't meant it never exist.

Who can confirm me there's no Alien out there?

OEM red and clear 99 spec tailights does exist but damn low in stock. The taillights are for 99~00 spec Integra SJ in Japan and European countries. The 96~98 spec Integra SJ has red/clear tail as well.

OEM has "Honda" and "Stanley" printed on the lens and the rear housing. You can also find the color chalk mark on the black plastic housing resulted from QC checking on most OEM parts.

There are several Taiwanese replica on the red/clear 99 tails, some are poorly made with noticable silicon mark on the lens and the craftmanship of entire tailights is not there. Those made by Deppo has a better quality but still not desired. The color on the replica tailights will fade away in time and probably fogging problem as well. OEM, however, is the assurance of quality, you will expect everything from the OEM lights.

My EK is loaded with the OEM red/clear tails.

cannot difren which is OEM & which is replica..... ler............

 

[mynnDAWG]

can if u look closely la...and after 2 years try comparing both again then u know

 

[Hikaru]

JINEIL2EN, the difference is obvious when you look at the tailights close up with your naked eyes. You need atleast 2 feets distance to regconize whether it's an original or replica. They have no different in distance, which means nobody can tell whether you are using the OEM or the cheapass replica when driving on the street, but you do.

After months, you can easily recognize it from the distance since the clear area will turn yellowing and the red area will be fading. The chrome surface at the internal housing will slightly chip off or turning dull as well.
