I recently got my dc2 from japan. It has the jdm lights with the chrome background. Is there a way i can take these apart and spray the chrome backing to black like the type r lights?

dam! rhd looks sweet. cant even tell the diff!

 

thanks

 

damn that was quick i gave up cause i couldn't pull aprt the housing for you

 

wow, thats looks really hot

 

thank, i used the same link u gave me except i used a heat gun. Its quite handy to have a friend present to help u out aswell.

 

got any tips i couldn't pull out both sides one side would come out a little and it would harden up again before i could start on the other side

 

Looks good.

Question:
About to pick up a DC2 (95gsr)
and Was wondering if the JDM front has Glass Housings

On the 2nd gen integra, USDM has glass, JDM has plastic.

I was wondering if it was the same for the DC2's

 

They're all plastic.

Was it difficult using the heat gun method? I'd rather not use my over either.

K thanks

 

the heat gun method is pretty easy if there is a friend there to help.

wat we did was start on one of the ends keeping the heat focused on it. when we were able to seperate it one person would keep lights pressure to pry it apart while the other person would take the heat gun to the rest of the seam.

once you take your time everything should come apart pretty easy

 

use the oven method... it'll be alright... just keep it clear of the oven coils =P
