Anyone here with a 01 or 02 CL with the new black housing? Just wondering on how it would look like if you had black housing with the roadlamps.... I am thinking about it but don't wanna waste my money... or maybe someone can photoshop a CL with blackhousing and roadlamps... thanks

 

black housing only looks good on a black cl.

 

let me coorect that...
BLACK HOUSING looks the best ona silver cl.

On a black one it kinda looked like an impala from the front..
My opinion only...jus go out and maybe u'll see the resemblance.

And i love the way the lines on the hood r so prominent on a silver CL with the black housing.

 

well then.. any pics of the 03 headlights on a 01 or 02???

 

id post some pics if someone would tell me why the fuck it says maximum 1 byte

 

i think the black housing looks nice on the red cl-s

got any links?

 

See... I think the 03's look best on any color but black...
They look best on silver IMO -- good looking contrast

 

I think they look good on red too
has anyone painted the housings body color?

 

Nah, best on BLACK CLS baby!

 

wow! an '03 with '02 wheels! looks good

 

No! wait! those are the new TL wheels aren't they?!?!
They dont seem to stick out as much. I could be wrong!

 

I actually saw an '03 with '02 wheels AT THE DEALERSHIP in Plano, TX... it was strange... I don't know why it had it like that... I wish I got those wheels insead of my '03 wheels...

 

I know Adam (soopa) painted his housings silver.... looks really freaking hot....

 

can someone photoshop a pair of roadlamps to the black CL up there with the black housing.... i'd also aprreciated alot if someone can make it red.... that is the only why to result my problem now... need to see a pic before clearing and blacking the housing out....

 

can any photoshop master here help me out?

 

You don't think the 03s look good in black?!?!

 

yes black and black does looks great... but the problem is that i have a 01 red CLS... i plan on clearing and then painting it black... just wanna see what a red CLS with black housing and roadlamps would look like therefore need a photoshop job...

 

I'm honestly torn... they could grow on me :P

Talk about slammed... you must have the lowest setting on the Tiens right now

 

Hahah...you are correct...but it's not at that height anymore... http://www.acura-cl.com/forums/showt...threadid=80728

 

I haven't seen the 03 reds yet, but from the pics I've seen, the black housing does make the car look agressive! Have you thought of painting the housing red to match the car? Also I do believe that if you do black...you will lose some light output.

 

peiqinglong is right, depending on what part of the housing you paint black, u will end up losing some light reflectivity. you may want to consider painting the border of the housing and not the rounded area. i do think you should consider painting them red possibly as well. it may look pretty good. i've got a white 2003 cl-s and i like mine with the black housing as well.

 

Rolie (Aztecrol) was considering doing his blue...it sounds nice in idea. But also consider this, the black housing isn't painted nighthawkblack, it's a different black that sets it off and also allows it to fit other car colors. So if your going to do it red...do it a deeper red than your car to set off the lights a little bit. One concern I have is that this might be too much red...black might better accent the car.

 

I'll E-mail you both pics of my car!

01 ClS with DIY blackhousing headlight hahaha

 

Oono, I never get tired of looking at your car! its the next best thing, aside from the sema!

 

Here's a pic of bullaculla's car...sweet as hell!




and the nicely overpriced Mugen...

 

looking good on the red...and i plan on doing it like Oono DIY housing, only problem is that i don't wanna replace my roadlamp with the new 03 covers... that is really the main reason that is stopping me from doing it right now....me afraid it'll look weird with the top black and bottem normal... that is why i need someone to photoshop a pair or roadlamp onto the red cl with blackhousing...

 

hey! looks good! thanks for posting them!
