I took off the taillights and paint it myself too~~~
Thz for my buddy's help~~~

 

Should have tail lights back from JnC tomorrow

 

Details


4G Tail lights
Blacked out Bezels
Smoked internals.

 

Alright here they are. Pics aren't the best, it was dusk, and the car is filthy but here a few pics.









a glimpse of both the head and tails

 

Wowza, those look great. The best tails out of the ones I have seen produced by JnC. Drool worthy!

 

looks great! i like it a lot!

 

Looks sweet

BTW change the amber turn signal bulbs to chrome coated ones for a cleaner look.

 

Damn, i love the smoked tail look. Nice work...

 

Yeah, i'm glad i decided to get them smoked. JnC had to talk me into it, and i'm glad he did. They light up as if they weren't smoked. Makes a big difference

Yeah i meant to order the bulbs last week but i forgot and now i have to go to Mississippi for work next week, so i will have to wait before i install them. I'm going to order a set for my blinkers up front as well.

I believe they are the same as noelmarley's tail lights, but his car is WDP. It really goes well with the CBP


Thanks, it will look even better when i get the ron jon grill and wash the car

 

^^ Dont forget the factory body kit

 

i'm gonna wait until the spring to see what Ron Jon is doing with a body kit or front lip. If i still don't hear anything factory is the way for me. for $885 it isn't bad and it already comes painted.

 

Newbie...and already like what I'm seeing on this forum...hahaha...

JnC, in your homepage, you didn't have pricing and options for 2010s...can you please let me know.

I sent you email as well...thanks!

 

To those of you who swapped the TSX lens, is it pretty easy process? Are we talking about removal of screws only or removal of glue/dremmel-ing?

Also, will this item work? What's the difference between this one on ebay with our stock? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT

Thanks much

JnC, thanks for the price quote on painting. In the process of saving the $$$ for you to do both front and back at once. Love your work! Wish you are in SoCal

 

To swap the lenses the projector has to be removed and opened, to remove the projector the headlights have to be opened and disassembled.

The ebay item that you are referring to is a set of projector assemblies and are completely irrelevant to our application. We are just changing the glass lenses for the projectors, oem ones are foggy with low opacity where as the ones used for the swap are crystal clear.

 

and they are fantastic

4G TL headlights
Cleared
Custom cut off shields
TSX-R lens swap


Installed pictures to follow soon.

 

damn i like the clear tail lights... makes me want the new TL

 

just a quick shot..

 

^^ Clean

 

WOW!!! Cleared looks great on that WDP

 

+1. Very clean look. I wonder how that TL would look with a just the Acura TL logo floating in the middle. Anyone want to chop shop it for me?

 

it does look clean. i wonder what it would look like color matched....

 

^^ you read my mind, I have been trying to visualize what they would look like color matched. I have been thinking that the Mayan may just be dark enough to get away with instead of going with a flat black?

 

Color matched would look sick I was going to PM you and advise that, I personally have an RRP 3G and here is how the color matched RRP headlights look.

 

Mmmmmmmm Me likey! Looks like I will be your guinea pig for the Mayan color match! Hmmm and the rears color matched and smoked

 

Unfortunate you didn't think of addressing this when the question was 1st posed back in post #200 ...

 

Not really sure how to interpret the above comment?

Post #200

 

The question you posted seemed like it was open for debate rather than directed square at me.

Color choice completely favors what sort of theme you are shooting for. For instance, venoms headlights and tail lights suited him as he has a black colored TL and a glossy black set up would suite his application. In case of Noel he wanted to go with a blacked out headlights and tail lights combo compare that to pimpin white's headlights where he just wanted to go cleared to keep a clean look going.


Clear always looks good on cars as it gives the front end a clean look, blacked out would look good if you have something else beside the headlights and tail lights black to compliment the set up. In case of TLNV I suggest color matched as we can color match everything to go well with the over all color of the car and keep the ridges in front of the projector silver to compliment the silver front grille. He can also go flat black to compliment the black/diamond cut present in the wheels.

If there is a question pertinent to anyone's particular set up then I am only a PM away .

 

^^

Well said....

 

Hi JNC,

I have a 4G TL and I really like the clear headlights. I'm a newbie, please contact at trancorp @ yahoo dot com. Thanks.

 

how easy are these headlights to install once you get them back from JNC?

I don't have a lot of car knowledge so I am wondering what I would need for this.

 

10mm socket and philips head screwdriver. about 40 minutes to take off bumper. 1 or so to put it all back on. Thats what it took me.

 

What about the tails? Does the bumper need to come off for those?

And Venom... I just saw your sig, when did you get the RJ Grille, and why haven't you posted pic's yet??

 

you have to take off the entire bumper to put the new headlights in?

 

Well i ordered the grill in August, i received it in October, had to send it back and got it back the day before Thanksgiving, i installed it that weekend with the Kaixen fogs. Haven't posted pics cuz i live in Mass and its been snowing and my nice black car looks grey with all the salt on it And its been too cold to wash it right now its in the mid 20's. I'll see what i can do, but the pics will be bad cuz the car is filthy.

The tails are so easy to remove, just undo the couple of black screw downs in the drunk and the flat head plastic screw. Takes about 10 minutes to take out the tails.

 

Yea, post it anyway, as a fellow masshole, I'll forgive you for the dirty car. I just ordered some Optimum No-Rinse to wash my car in the garage on a 40+ degree day (waiting for that one).

Mainly I just am curious to see how it looked with the blacked out lights.. I don't think anyone has posted a CBP w/ RJ Grille and JnC lights.

 

I believe you're right, that's why i kind of wanna wash the car, you know, do it justice.

 

does anyone know where I can buy replacement headlights & taillights for the 4G or are these not readily available?

I want the headlights from JnC but I don't have another car to drive while my headlights are being worked on.

 

Very expensive.....
Here is one place you can get them..

True, I'll be patient But if MA sees a 40+ degree sunny day I'll be looking for ya
