How is that "JDM style"?

Doesn't look like the JDM headlinghts. I swear this JDM craze has gone too far.

EDIT: With that said, it's your car and your money. Do what you want. This is Honda-TECH.com, not Honda-I-Can't-Make-Up-My-Own-Mind.com

how is that JDM??


and what's wrong with the stock setup. This way, if you get a chip on the corner lens, you have to replace the whole thing

That is real JDM EG6 headlights & corners. They never made them in Japan as 1-piece (and we still get lots of phone calls with people asking for "Japanese 1-piece EG" headlights ) but when on the car and the front end is aligned and everything looks straight, they sure do look like 1-piece headlights.

The ones up above, no offense, look like *** IMO, but that's my opinion. They look like the black housing projector 1-piece headlights that they already have but these are a chrome housing with no projector.

well from what i know of it, It uses an H4 or H4H bulb and is completely 1 piece. Supposedly resembling a 96-2000 style headlight. I know it has a parking light socket for it. I know its not available here in the U.S. so i assumed that it was a jdm style.

These are prototypes that came from overseas but not sure where they are made. A friend of mine gave me these to see what i think of them and i thought i might get opinions on them from you H-T guys.

it says jdm, because when you type in on ebay they try to get you tot look at thier product

like this one liscence plate thing has
"MUGEN Honda VTEC Turbo B16 B18 B20 DOHC JDM Plates SiR"
and if yo dont believe me
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...12314

Make it look better. Too much going on in there, and the blinker sides look like they were sealed with a hot glue gun.
If you cant cary the back seal over, then dont even bother, it just looks half ***.

yea alot of that crap is made over in china tiawan etc.. so i guess if you want to be technical its all jdm. and its imported here. which im sure alot of that cheapo knock off crap is made over seas because of lower labor costs. doesnt mean it looks good.
