Headlights i got from www.oemacuraparts.com since shipping isnt that bad for headlights. I got one from there and the other one from ebay for $100 less.

Angel eyes were from ebay.

I basc use www.oemacuraparts.com, which is located in az
and www.acuraoemparts.com (delray acura), located in fl

hey bro, just a quick question, the decklid u s0pent 100 on, where did you purchase that and is that a type s decklispoiler? Because ny acura dealers want 600+ dollars for that spoiler..there is a diff between it and a base tl spoiler...

How did you cut out the area so clean on the tail light film since there is no kind on indention on the tail light itself? This was exactly how I was visioning mine to look like.

Thx in advance bro.

light swap

From what i can understand.

07 type s headlights can fit on an 04 base?
I found these lights with clear corners , dual hid's and halos.

http://www.uniquestyleracing.com/2020actljdmc.html

I know i can customize then myself and save some money.
But i live in a small apartment in the city.

I just wonder about the fit and if a custom light harness will be needed?
