I attempted to swap my 06 with a fellow member's 04 bumper and everything looked to fit just fine until we started bolting everything up. I ended up finding out that the 04-05 wheel well splash guards are wider than the 06 (or vice versa). Has anyone actually swapped and experienced what i'm talking about?

There's no way the wheel well liners have changed materially. The dimensions of all the outers are the same. Just make sure you've got it lined up and are re-installing correctly!

Im thinking about getting a pair of 04-05 JDM headlights for my 06 TSX. According to what Ive read in this thread they will fit, but has anybody actually done this yet?
I thought I remember reading somewhere that I would have to get 04-05 ballasts in order to install the 04-05 JDM headlights on my 06, cany anybody confirm this?

did you figure out what the problem was? did it ended up lining up?

I didn't try again after that ordeal, but if there's people here on the forum saying it has worked, then I guess it works.

I have the 06/07 JDM headlights on my 2004 TSX but there seems to be a very narrow gap where the headlights meet with the fender. It is minimal and not isn't that noticeable when your not staring close at it.
