thinking about going 03

i've been hinking lately since i'm tinting my tails that my car might look better if i had the 03 head lights and the body colored grille trim. heres a picture of what my car looks like now:


what do you guys think? i've been watching a few 03 headlights on ebay. but i dont have much dough right now. if anyone wants to trade for my cleared 01's i'd deffinitely do it.

I think black looks good with either tails. For that money I could find other mods I'd rather have. If you're going for non-chrome on the front the 03 headlights would match the body colored grill surround better.

THe car looks good as is, but I'd put the Acura symbol back on the grill.

well if i could find a set for 100 and the black grille border is probably 50 shipped with paint...i dunno just getting bored of the chrome headlights

edit: wow i just noticed that my hood and bumper dont align right on the passenger side, look at the gap between the headlight and then the slanted bumper thingy right next to it...hmm this agitates me, i'm such a perfectionist

I've been planning on selling my headlights...they're '01 CL-S headlights that were cleared and smoked...so the corners are all black as well. Here's a link to what they look like...

Let me know if anyone is interested.

You're car looks clean. Looks like you cleared the diffusers out of the headlights, why not black out your headlights too. I agree with the move away from the chromy look. Maybe get those black chrome emblems offered on the 99 TL, but maybe you don't want emblems? You could tint the roadlamps to bring the white down.
What have you done to the rear?
