most of the time the lense covers are illegal... or the ticket i got for mine was bs.

i wouldnt paint them green but its your car, and i highly doubt any one has ever painted them green.
if it were me id stick to oem,black or gunmetal. but you are way better off painting you oem lights then buying ebay.

they should be legal (unless your in cali, driving a honda is pretty much illegal there) basically cause you could rip it off your headlights right when the cop stopped you

doesnt work that way man, i tried it, still got a 124 dollar ticket per light.

theres alot of things in cali that isnt leagal but there also is alot that is, you just have to be carful.

and to add to it, covers suck. they decrease your light out put, (Really darks ones) do the most. and they are ugly,
dont know what i was thinking when i had them

oh and almost forgot, they break really easy.
