The whole term makes no sense at all (well I guess the "tail" part does ;) ). They are altezza-style tails, made to mimic the Toyota Altezza (Lexus IS300) OEM tails.. I really dont know why they got the "euro" title, since the Altezza was a Japanese car in the first place. I guess it's just something aftermarket companies coined because "euro" usually means quality, etc.. sounds better than "Cheaply made Chinese taillights styled after a Japanese Toyota". :P
