Default Del Sol JDM Headlights or Amber Corners

I'm looking for a website where I can order a set of JDM Del Sol headlights or Amber Corners but can't find one. I've looked jdmshit.com passwordjdm.com jaydm.com and ebay haven't had any luck. Where have you seen them or bought them at? Searched it. Thanks

I know, but if I can't find the jdm headlights for a reasonable price I would buy amber corners for the usdm headlights and I'd be happy with those, I seen some on ebay way back when but I didnt have my sol at the time so I obviously didn't buy them, now there aren't any on ebay.

k I'll check and I heard about the painting the corners but how do you do it, krylon orange stain glass paint right? but spraying the inside, do the corners come apart or spray where the light bulb goes in?

you actually have to bake the corners in the oven for a couple minutes. it wont melt unless you have it at like more then 500 degrees. if you paint the outsides it wont really come out as well as it should. remove the outer plastic portion of the corner. spray it with the orange stain glass paint. do a couple of coats or whatever you like best. get a good adhesive sealer. and voila you have some amber corners

alright thanks, I'll have to do that, last question, does it look better using a set of oem corners or a cheap set of clears?

use your oem corners. it will come out alot better and a more richer amber. but if you buy clears you can do it. it just wont look the same

Alright thanks, I think I may buy an extra set of oems off ebay if I can find them cheap enough, just in case I mess it up. Thanks!
