Alright I've been searching for a pic of a 91 civic with black headlight housings, or pics of the blacked out headlights. When you spray the lights, is there supposed to be a reflector part inside the housing that you don't spray? Cause I just sprayed the whole housing black and now I just thought - "Isn't there supposed to be a reflector piece still in there? I would post pics but no good cameras here only cell phones.

 

i seen a post not to long ago where someone did a write-up on it. i do remember that he taped off the reflector before he painted them though

 

....so the reflector is the piece in the back of the housing? And I'm assuming the lights won't project with them painted black?

 

correct

Ahhhhh now I see. Thanks a lot. So.....anyone knows how to get the paint off without damaging the reflector? Lol.

 

you will need to buy new lights if u painted the back/reflector part of the housing. maybe you can spray chrom paint over it? good luck!!!!

 

Noooooooo....lol. So what is I try to scratch the black paint off the reflector? Not like I sanded it down or anything, just sprayed on it. Oh well, anyone knows where I can get some Stanleys for a 91 US spec Civic HB?

I was thinking that too until someone was like the dealers don't give you the stanley headlights sometimes. But I'll check it out though thanks everyone.

 

I work at a dealer....yeah, we got the lights.....they are 126.97 each side ....unless you got a hook.

If u want to remove it, try using paint thinner. It will remove the paint but it could also damage the reflector.

 

So you can buy lens and reflectors seperately?

 

i wounder if you can just buy these http://www.procivic.com/pages-....html already black houseing headlights and take of the cover and put the oem one if you know what i mean

 

Naw the fluted glass wouldnt work well with the projector.. It wouldnt give you a good light pattern if you know what i mean
