Day said: "Overall it was a brilliant afternoon and evening. I think it's the first time I've ever finished under lights so that was exciting."
McIlroy described the event as good preparation for Japan's first PGA Tour event, the Zozo Championship, which starts on Thursday, also in Chiba.
McIlroy said: "It was good to get a driver in the hands and have a hit, and have a bit of fun.
"It was still quite competitive out there. It was great to be a part of something like this in Japan, and a great way to kick off the week."
