Hey Bro I noticed a while ago you had your front lights on your RSX tinted slightly... Looks great bro where did you get it, how much??? Did you notice at night you have less light on the road now that they were tinted???

JDM RSX Headlights are black. You can order them, but they are around 700 USD.

People just paint them and pop them in the oven....

no, there is no real difference in "lighting"...I just painted the housing which does not interfere with the actual refectors...even though shadowz didnt help me he told me how to do it, which was a big help...I would suggest getting help doing it, pulling apart the clear plastic from the black housing was a BITCH...took me and my girlfriend like 4 hours to get them both apart...there is a really good set of instructions on club rsx that I am sure can apply to most honda headlights...

scroll down a bit...I found that this guys instructions were really good for the "oven technique.

I used barbaque paint instead...I sanded and primed to.
