Default Where can i get cheap replacement headlights

I have 01 honda accord. I remember buying 2 pairs of 01 honda accord headlights on ebay for 120$ together w/ shipping.

Now i cannot find a similar deal, is there a website for it?
I am looking for oem lights, i just want my front end to look newer.
I bought headlights almost 1.5 yrs ago but they got all fogged up and also they are very hot when i try to touch them after having them on for 10 minutes, should they be that hot?

Also i wanna get a new bumper, http://www.carpartswholesale.com has cheap bumpers, my question is, is there a big differance between a CAPA Certified Part and a non-CAPA part, bumer especially??

let me know guys, give me some advice!

Try Craigslist also.People have a whole bunch of stuff on there as well.I'm sure you can find headlights for your car.

Well going the cheap way is not always a good idea. Headlights off Ebay that are cheap rarely fit perfectly and will probably fog up eventually. As for a cheap bumper, be careful with that too. My friend just got a rear bumper cover for his civic off of ebay and it doesn't fit worth a crap.

I sanded the lights down w/ 800 sand paper, then took the roughness of the 800 sand paper off with 2000 sand paper, then used PlasticX and got my head lights cleared up like brand new! no more complains.

easiest and best way to clean headlights.
