headlight mods
I'm a virgin in the Acura import world =/, long time mustang v8 blood. Just got an 04 TL always been about the "clean" look and i've seen the whole "painted/cleared" headlight look, but I live down in Naples Florida so not much outlets close for that stuff...anyone know a DIY way lol??
..also any tips on "cheap" things to change the look into a sleeker look...i say cheap meaning takinging things off ooor little stuff, EX: de-badged, removed pinstripe and all the grandma goodies, mudflaps, sun visor thing, not lookin to speend more than a couple hundred $$, at least not yet
big into photog hoping to have sum shweet pics up soon!

welcome to the forums. I would suggest that you search like the others did in the future, but to make it easy for you now, these are the headlight mods you can do:
Clear the amber corners of the lights
Paint the inside of the lights black/colormatch them
Add angel eyes
and the most expensive of all, projector upgrades. You can do the ZKW lense swap which will make you lights brighter, increase the sharpness of the light cutoff, add more color (blue) to the cutoff and as well make your lights look a little better. This is expensive though, around 300 just for the lenses and then 150+ for labor.
