Civicly02 - signed up

SVongkasem - I can do it. I have all the tools...buy Denso Iridium IK20. Groupbuycenter.com had them for $43 shipped, but takes longer than a week to get them.

born2xLr8 - improved gas mileage, smoother idle, faster revving.... definetely worth it. search a bit and you'll find plenty of positive reviews.

DaZeD - They won't care that the headlight assembly is black (even focus now come with stock black housing), but they will probably want to see the amber bulb & amber reflector (yes that ugly orange thing you probably removed). If I were you I would black out the headlight and put the amber reflector on (just like TopFuel). Then on your spare time you can remove the reflector...

Confirmation PM's will be sent tomorrow along with time shifts (don't want all 20+ to show up at 11am...)

Somewhere there....it says that in CA you need both amber reflector and amber bulb. Sucks doesn't it....

Next time you go outside look at the front side of all cars..... every single (USDM) car has an amber reflector somewhere on the front & red on the back.

This is just my guess.... I think they will sign it off and let you go. The headlamps are still D.O.T. approved just painted black & the aim is normal. Also go with your stock H4 bulbs.

Alright I have an update for you guys. Can you update the first page also Alex? I pulled some strings on my work schedule so I'll be at Tech Day from 11am to around 2pm. BUT whoever wants to do the black housing headlights I still want them all to show up at 11 so i can explain everything once and get everything done at once instead of going back and forth on stuff ya know. I'll also be able to help on suspension, body kits, headunits and whatever else. Alright see ya guys next week.

Dayam, that doesn't sound good... I hope mine doesn't do that. Well, you could always put it back to stock easily right?

If you come too early, you might have to wait until your turn...

I split tech day into 3 shifts so people dont wait too much. But feel free to come early and chill...enjoy the riverside 90+ degree weather.

Fuse and fuse holder is extra...if you want it to be safer.

I've been using my booty call without a fuse and it has not blown or anything.

But sure....buy it if you want it. Definetely doesn't hurt.
