Default Head/Tail lamps?

I've seen clear turn signals for the 04-06, But, Can't seem to find them? Also, clear/grey tail lamps? Are they custom, Or can you order them? and where if so?

clear corners are a custom diy. you can find it right here on the site in the diy section. its meant for the lc accent but its the same thing for any other car as well. as for the tail lights, they are called altezza tail lights, you can find them on ebay or a lot of aftermarket online shops, and they come in clear cover with either a black or chrome backing.

The headlights can be bought from EF USA for $225, or you can open up the headlamps, remove the amber lens and replace the bulbs with a set of chrome ambers. The tails have all been hand crafted using a set of the shark racing tinted tail covers. You cut out your red tail covers and glue those in in their place. The thing to worry about in doing that is the legality of it all.

Best idea, pulling headlamps and amber covers? or just buy new?

Removing the lens seems much better, Then again, Its only because I lost my job ;x
As for tails, I should just forget it and tint them? Or just forget it all together? LOL!

I don't feel like having my jewels removed for having a nice set of tail lamps, And I don't know how strict OH is on these things.

Yeah. Bake em', seperate the housing, unscrew the amber lens, and reseal the housing. Tint on the tails is a better way to go to keep from being hassled. Vinyl or niteshade work well.

^Or until golden brown, lol. I'd go 225-250. May take a bit longer, but way less danger of melting anything.
