the authentic jdm headlight has a black housing with a hint of bronze.

replica looks exactly the same but it's painted flat black w/o the bronze and it doesn't say HONDA on the lens

The authentic JDM headlight beam pattern will shoot up towards the left...You will need to adjust the reflective lenses so you're not blinding any on coming drivers...
