Default 98 civic EX headlights

HEy ya!! Just got a 98 ex with 41k miles on it in nearly excellent shape not a bad deal @ $4500.00
Anyhows just looking to make it look not so stock and change up the headlights and taillights NO Altezza lights I dont like them But looking into maybe changing the look of the headlights and I like the rears that are red on top and white on the bottom. Any ideas on what I can do to the front headlight? The civic is green by the way..
Thanks!

Get these- http://www.tornactive.com/pd_honda_civic_9698.cfm

And these (coupe)- http://www.tornactive.com/pd_honda_civic_9600_coupe.cfm

Or these (sedan)- http://www.tornactive.com/pd_honda_civic_9698_sedan.cfm

Or these (hatch)- http://www.tornactive.com/pd_honda_civic_9600.cfm

These are very good quality. I have a set of their headlights and I absolutely love them. I didn't know if you had the coupe, sedan or hatch so I got the links for all of them.

Yea these r the ones i like
Or these (sedan)- http://www.tornactive.com/pd_honda_civic_9698_sedan.cfm

By the way its a sedan..
now i know peeps have customized their own head lights as in the link you sent (blacking out the housing) any idea if once you crack open the headlights and reseal them, if you get a good seal from it or are you at risk of getting water into them?

thanks for the info..

the angel eyes are nice too, wanna see whats out there before i make my purchase or crack mine open....
Im think about rims first though....17;s maybe 18's but i know that imma get a nasty ride on 18 plus with all the pot holes in my town im bound to tear thrm rims up with a 35 size tire.....

I have a sedan also, Im going to get tail ights that are kind of like yours but mine will be a more ruby red, they sort of look like they have been pulled off the back of a bmw

I've helped 2 of my buddies open up their lights, and neither has had a problem with moisture gettin in now. Just make sure you do a good job at sealin them after you close em back up.

yeah man i like them taillights alot real nice...
about the headlights how hard is it gonna be and what else can be done to them besides taking the amber part off of them can I paint the dome on them? Any documented info on how to do this as its the first time I will be trying this and would really hate to mess them up.

Good Looking out!!!!
