I really don't feel good about snapping my stock headlights apart to paint them black so I'd rather buy a set already done but the question is...where?
The cheapest price I could find on eBay is $136 shipped ($94 selling price/$42 shipping[screwy] ...which seems absurd).

Does anyone have a source where the shipping charges aren't so inflated...?

www.ebay.com item # 130261846477...thanks for your help guys.[wave]

PS: Also looking for a source on a white or black grille to eliminate the chrome one.[thumbd]

hey i did it myself about a week ago..honestly i think u should do it yourself..1st of all its free, very easy, and it gives u a good feeling after you see it done..but it does take a while im not gonna lie..not worth $136 on ebay

 

[zx360]

do it yourself... i did mine junked up on painkillers after double knee surgery... its not that bad!

 

[musclecarjohn]

Oh I hear you man...and I know I could do it no problem...but I'm more concerned with re-sealing and waterleaks afterwards as well as heating up the lens in an oven...prolly just me,lol.

I don't mind spending the $136 so long as the quality is good.If the black stays black and I don't need to worry about breaking mine apart and flaking paint,it'll all be worthwhile.[]

its been well over 2 years on mine, no leaks, no paint chipping, no pealing... score the seal before heating, work bottom up and you will be golden... i duno spending a few bucks on paint and sand paper vs. hundreds on new lights...

buy a pair of stock ones or find some at a junk yard and paint those black, so if you mess up (doubtful) than you wont be loosing as much

Thanks guys....

I appreciate all the DIY info guys...and I might consider blacking out my OEM pieces...but would anyone else have a better source on aftermarket black replacements at a better price...?[dunno]

 

[zx360]

only place ive ever seen them besides the DIY is e-bay... sorry

 

[evanjfrancis]

[stoopidsteve87]

Those are the only ones that would fit.

 

[Mr.Zx3]

[FociZX4ST]

I like the do it yourself better. I don't like the chrome ring arond the turn signal!

I don't like the chrome rings either,those JDM versions look best to me.

Mr.Zx3,

Where did you see them on eBay for $90?[dunno] Some that are advertised there at lower prices still have a $40-$50 shipping charge so the total still works out to be $136-$144.
I can't find them for less anywhere...[dunno] []

 

[musclecarjohn]

Thank you again guys...

For all your information.[wave]
As I said previously,I didn't feel comfortable breaking my OEM lights apart so I went and bought the JDM crystal versions from eBay for $136/delivered.
Will post up pics when I get them installed...[wrenchin]
