Name the style of headlights (pic)

I really like the setup this guy has. Is that a color matched grill?

07-08 base headlight with type-s diffusers.
The only painting done was the corner amber inserts; they were painted some silver.
There is also either a projector where the DRL goes or just a projector lens. Haven't seen a picture of Rodney's leche with them on so I wouldn't know whether they are functional or simply aesthetic.

I'm pretty sure JnC did this set up. I believe that he used TSX projectors could be Morimoto Minis as well. Nonetheless they look great.
