What is the difference between these facelifts?



VRS



I can definitely see the physical difference, but I mean will both of them match the color with the taillights? Or each one of them matches with some specific taillights color?

And why are they different? I'm guessing one comes for example in 95 and the other one comes in 96-97, I don't know.

Regards!

um, the first picture is the 7.5 gen USA version tail lights, and the second picture is the 7.5 gen JDM version tail lights. Both of those are facelift versions. The pre-facelift tail lights in both US and JDM had amber signals.

hey, that first car looks familiar lol

The center garnish is the biggest difference but overall they have subtle differences the JDM verson is slightly different, the red is a bit darker. And the white parts of the lens are a bit clearer with thin faint lines smooth across the lens. The lens looks more clear. The US version is has a more reflective style lens with the tripple bars in each red lens...as you can see in my car. But yea, I like the JDM verson more.

I personally liked the BMW e36 2-door tail lights, so I put those on and eliminated the trunk garnish altogether! But that's cheating
