are you looking for roadlamps or inserts? i just got rid of my roadlamps on here to someone on here. i just purchased inserts...waiting on my fogs to arrive then im going to do a reinstallation with my new fogs...will be custom fitting it to my 03 inserts... it was a bitch to get a hold of the inserts from acura dealerships..out everywhere... had to wait for them to order and ship... and one side costs like 3x more then the other side...

anthracite, its lookin good. i like it. (i might have kept the bezel black, just to make them "stand out" a bit more but it looks like good work)

i've been toying with the idea of messing with my roadlamps...or doing this. need more light output.
