Not bad. Looks quite hot. Blackout headlights always go well with black car. Makes me want to do it too...now where are the 99-01 clear diffusers?

yah, the guy is from Hawaii. I seen in past forums that other members had done this as well to their cars. Not sure who though. I'll post more pics later when I paint my grill as well.

First off, your ride looks mad tight with those blacked out lights. I gotta question for all of you, do you think it would look good if instead of black I got my lights painted the same as my car, which is aegean blue. I may do it this summer but dont wanna paint my headlights to find out it looks like crap. I value all your opinions. Thanks

Go for it! it would look like the A-spec. The reason I didn't do it cause I wanted a flat black look like the cl's.

i would leave the grill, my major complaint about the nose of the last gen accords is the lack of the stand-out chrome grill. i think it gives it the luxury look. but i have seen a white tl w. the grill painted white and it looked pretty dam good. by the way, great job on the headlights, first time ive seen them on an 02+. makes me jealous

Anyone know where to have headlights blackened in Southern Cali?

I just saw someone in South Jersey with a black tl with blacked out headlights. It looked very nice. Anyone here?
