hey rolo how did you do what you did to your head lights?

Theres a DIY Guide in a different forum.. walks you step by step.. I'll try and locate it.. in a nutshell.. you have to remove the OEM headlight, place them in a oven for a few minutes.. take them apart and you can paint them which ever color you wish.. 99.9% of the Gen7Accord members paint it black = blackhoused headlights... I am the 1st Noble Green owner to match the OEM paint to the car... I found a place that sells you your OEM paint in a spray can .. the site is www.PaintScratch.com the paint is exactly the same... I am actually painting my TSX mirrors w/ LEDS today after work..

status 02-12-2009 03:45 PM

awesome , thanks.

Fenix 02-12-2009 03:55 PM

I am the other .01% that didnt go blackhoused...mine are metalic black :D

BTW Rolo, I dig that look for your headlights. I think color matching the housing is way sweet.

status 02-12-2009 07:40 PM

fenix you have a pic of yours?

I've had the fogs in my closet for 2 months (it was driving me crazy)...but I wanted to save for the HIDs .. it was worth the investement.. I don't like the U.S fogs.. and when I seen these in Japan I had to get them..

finch13 02-17-2009 09:56 AM

I like the bluer ones on the passenger side. They give almost a teal color that goes great with the green paint.

We have the same taste my friend... My wife liked the driver side... I'm shooting for the passanger side... I'll probably install the other set on her Solara...
