carbon fiber Altezza's

why are they so hard to find ? are they that popular ? I have been searching Ebay all week and found nothing but Black & Chrome ones

They do pop up occasionally, I've come across them from time to time. I saw a Civic with CF altezzas and really really didn't like it, though. The 'carbon fiber' pattern isn't uniform. It's hard to explain, but the lines in whatever they use aren't all parallel, they change based on the contours of the lights. It gave me that same sort of *wank* *wank* feeling I get whenever I see some Civic 4-door with a SI badge or a Buick Regal with NOS stickers. The ones for our car may look better, or maybe that's your cup of tea, though.

they are not real cf..just imitation..BUT they look nice

If they were real carbon fiber..they would be super expensive.
