the headlights are very different. You know that stupid ugly orange corner on the headlights well with the jdm ones that piece is clear and they look much nicer

The primary difference is a result of DOT regulations. The fugly orange peel on the front sides is a result of US DOT requirements for side reflectors.
You can swap out the USDM headlight units for the JDM ones, but it costs and arm and a leg and you have to re-aim the headlights once they are installed.

Clear JDM lights.
BTW: the jdm lights don't have clear side markers, they're just silverish. You can open up the stock ones and spray paint the orange part to get that JDM look.
