Default black headlight housing

how do you take apart the headlight housing for a 96-00 Honda Civic? When I get one, I either want to paint it to match the car or paint it black like a type R. Anyone ever done this? is it easy to seal again? If someone could kinda walk me through it a little that'd be great.

thanks

Andy

the halo angel eye headlights cost too much... Id rather spend that on a body kit. But thanks.. THanks everyone, it's people like you that make forums like these so great.

by the way, nice car man, that looks great.

Just make sure that you take your time to seal them back up right. I made that mistake before and evenutally got a filmy residue on the inside of the headlight. I just ended up buying some JDM ones off a website. They look better IMO. If you want a link to them, lemme know. If not, good luck.
