2k2 clear corners

I have not been able to find anyone who sells clear corners for a 2k2. Does anyone know of a good site where I can get some.

i saw the DIY it just looked pretty involved. I was under the impression you could get some for $50 and just snap them in place.

You are kidding me right? Have you looked at the front light?? It is ONE piece not TWO, like the past civics. How would get a whole headlight replacement for $50??
anyway, the DIY isn't that hard. Just takes some knowhow. find someone in your area that has done it before and ask them to help you.

you can always pop them in the oven at 250 degrees for 5-6 minutes. it pretty much lossens the glue, yet doesnt melt the plastic (as long as you keep ur eye on them).

This is kind of related to the question. Ive seen some cars with do-it-yourself black housing headlights. They keep the orange piece in it and somehow they get the housing black. What is it that you guys are painting, and what do you use to paint it? Spray Paint? Thanks.

Search it....

Follow the clear headlights DIY, paint the chrome trim Black, most people use high temp engine paint, put the orange thing back in and close them up. If you want to keep the reflective coating in the turn signal, then mask over the orange thing and paint the lights with the orange thing (masked over) in place... that way the chrome will remain in the turn signal recess.
