Default Del Sol Titanium Headlights

Would anybody be able to point me to a picture of these installed on a (preferrably black) car?
They are not straight black housing headlights. The paint is dark chrome reflective of some type...

I've been going through the "owner's club #2" thread, but I haven't found anything yet. Thank you for the pics, but I'm most interested in how the light will reflect off of this specific finish.

There are only a few different moulds for A/M Del Sol headlights, and they're easy to tell apart. It really doesn't matter if you buy them off eBay or twice the price at an online tuner store. It's still made in the same overseas factory. And any a/m light on my car will get an extra seal of silicone before it's installed.

See if you can find one pieces .

I think one piece headlights own.

Look a lot cleaner.

The ones that I'm looking for are one-piece. You mean JDM headlights? I really don't want JDM. They look old. I hate hate fluted lenses.

I really do appreciate the responses, guys. But I'm not looking for opinions. I'm a stubborn old fart.

Hey man, expletive JDM.

expletive it hard with a 50" *****.

I didn't say that, I said one piece. I looked at your car, they are one piece, what I said doesn't apply to you, sorry for the confusion.

I was simply referring to in light of that guy (solbrothers) who posted the 92-95 civic two piece pic.

Thanks, Sal, for the pic. Do those headlights have the smoke/titanium/dark chrome finish? That pic looks like the bright chrome with amber corners. Interesting if it is the darker chrome, tho...

Thanks to Syndacate, Solbrothers, and LowSlow for comments, too. Sorry for any confusion, also.

ya in person they're a little darker they're not bright chrome. and i have amber bulbs in the turn signals that's why it looks like that. they light up really nice at night.

Wow, that's a LOT brighter than I was expecting. Guess maybe I'll have to go w/ the flat black ones. Any chance you have a side/quarter shot of the front? Thanks a heap for posting your pics. And, btw, you car looks great w/ those lights.

I love the way those black headlights look. One pieces are beautiful.

Ebay or not, those things look NICE!
