Default couple body questions... 98 accord

alright.. on the 01-02 accords the body changes slightly... like the front bumer n the tail lights... will those mount up? cause I wanna get sum fog lights but they dont make em for my style bumper...

another question where can I buy black housing head lights? I think the head lights change slightly from 00 to 01 when I look on ebay they have one's that should fit 98 to 02 but if they headlights change slightly I would think the ones on ebay wont fit very good like leave lil gaps n things. If possible where could I get JDM black housing headlights??? or JDM parts period... like I see nock off stuff but I wanna try to be as true to JDM as I can. thanx in advance.

Yes, you can swap sedan bumpers back and forth, and you can swap coupe bumpers back and forth. You cannot, however, switch between sedan and coupe w/o getting the hood as well.

I believe the taillights are NOT swappable.

The headlights are the same, from 98-02. JDM headlights do not fit without major modification to the body of the car. Take a look at the JDM version for these years and you'll understand why. You'll also realize why there are no real JDM parts for this car.
