Heh, yeah, but there aren't any inspection laws in OK, so I could still get away with it for a while

Plus, that law is stupid cuz if you hit a person hard enough to shatter your headlight, they're probably dead anyway...

Does the corner of this lens still have the lines? I don't think the lens looks good with the whole thing being cleared out, but if the corner will has lines, and the front is clear, it looks really clean. It shows the lines on the corner of the cover in the first pic, but you can't really tell in the 2nd pic. A picture from further away and at other angles would be good.

i dont think those new euro light lens would fix the oem housing. from the looks of the picture the black rubber peace that goes around the headlamp looks thicker from stock.. i think they did this cause of fitment issues..
a little birdy told me this...

If you look closely at the 3rd picture, head light cover has no lines. What you're seeing is another layer of corner light cover with lines in it. Some people have said it doesn't look uniformed due to lack of lines but lines in the corner is sufficient IMO.

i agree with the guy who says getting ebay 1 and then taking off the lense... just makes more sense....

i like the delining cover but i bet they would look like crap once you get rock chips on it tho, and no to mention the light wont shine right.. id get it ONLY if i get tsx projectors or some sort of retrofit.

lol. that's funny

Is there any way we could get rid of the corner part of the lights that are lined? It ruins the flow..
