Default Has anybody bought eBay JDM style headlights?

I was wondering if anybody bought these headlights. If so, does it look authentic, fit good, and was it worth it? I want JDM headlights but I think $500 for a pair is a little steep.

actually it says "02-04 Acura RSX Black JDM OEM Style Headlights" Style....so meaning replicas. Sorry...i don't have any personal experience...but i've heard a lot about aftermarket and have heard that you get what you pay for. Sometimes something like the JDM OEM ones are worth it..less aggrevation and all.

I have alot of experience with JDM style stuff. Fitment can be close but nothing is better then OEM. I have seen alot of body kits, headlights, and tail lights. It's always better to buy OEM. The fitment is good and the headlights shine straight. I put on someone's halo lights when they 1st came out and those things shined all over the place. Plus if you don't want to get flamed by JDMers then get the real thing.

No one said they were supposed to be painted. If you look at the picture; they're not painted..
