im just wondering why u would buy some stock headlights where the seller just painted the housing and reattach them back together and call them JDM u might want to do some more research on JDM headlights. If im not mistaken there are no lines on the covers of the headlights also they would fit from a 96-00 model car. Just my thought.

here is a link to PasswordJDM:

just seal them with silicone so they won't get moisture inside...

Ebay headlights tend to get some moisture and little water...Silone and you should be fine.

Do not buy a damned thing from PasswordJDM expecting it to be actual JDM, most of their stuff is the exact same as ebay equipment (unless it's actually imported used parts from japan)...

And Ebay black headlights are manufactured that way, it's not taken appart and painted by anybody, if anyting it's that they don't chrome selected areas (my black projector headlights are the same as the chrome units with out being chromed)..... But sealing them extra is a good thing no matter what...
