That's actually a problem with plastics of the 2k era. I hate it, I buff and clean my lights constantly but that is just the way the plastic deforms over time. It looks like scratches/dense spiderweb looking foggyness. I'm pretty sure everyone with an 09 is starting to see this. But I had actual condensation, I could see the individual droplets in the morning and by mid day they evaporated.

c'mon bao...you making us little viet kids with the TSXs look like ricers ahahaha. (i really hope your name is bao and you are viet...going by screen names here)

But honestly, if you like it, do it. I agree with ed, it does look a LOT better than i expected, and props to you if you do it and be the only person with green DRL housing.

But, just like blacked out taillights, i don't think i'll be a very big fan. Do it and prove me wrong!

Honestly when people show me cars of what a ricer is and clean I see the same thing. Dropped car with mods. So when people call me rice I look at their car and say "Okay!" Like I think people who put that colored protector to change the fog housing yellow and blue is rice but people say no its clean so I don't understand how this is rice then. And yes vIetnAMese

Hahaha, i guess it is all up to the person who's looking at it. I guess this is okay, since your light isn't actually green! housing green, not rice, but up to the person whether it looks nice or not. But green lights, i'd just stop right there ahahaha. But, i'll wait till final pics, for final judgements.

i wonder how many second gens are asian...lmao
