Those aren't the lights evo-r uses in their kit. It almost looks like someone bought the housings off of ebay or something and put in some lights of their own.

You might be able to buy a left cover from evo-r. I don't think it would be too much different than the right one.

I bought replacement covers from EVO-R for my RE-Amemiya sleek light kit. the price was very reasonable and the shipping was quick.

He"s a forum member so you just have to PM him and go from there.

Because they fit like ***, the quality is cheap, and the light output kinda sucks. For the price, they're a great deal, but overall they are just *okay*.

I too was going to comment on the poor fit and finish of those lights. It shouldn't be THAT hard to get credit-card-width MAXIMUM gaps that at least conform to the existing contours.

Do you have the stock flip-up lights still? Or did you buy the car this way?
I know a lot of people like the sleek light look but I just can't help think it is best to keep these cars as stock as possible, from a 'value' point of view if not aesthetics.
