i believe u can get it JDM...but why not do it yourself...its a lot cheaper...IMO....I just did it last weekend....and let me tell u its worth it...heres a few pics of bens ride I decided to do it after seeing his ride...http://www.protege5.com/vbb225/attac...=&postid=44644

all I did was take the bumper off....then I removed the headlights...put them in the oven @ about 350 for 5-10 min(be careful u don't want to melt ur headlight housing...so keep an eye on them) I did this to soften up the adhesive on the headlights....then I slowly started pulling it apart...then the trim has two screws that hold them in....I used some automotive exterior black primer and over this I used flat black bbq grill paint....then I put it all back together using clear silicone adhesive...I will post some pics soon....but they look exactly like the ones above....good luck

oh wow...
it looks very nice...
but I don't think I have the guts to put my headlight in the oven to "smoke" it..though, I'm sure it save alot of money......

Any other way? -_-

well........ if you wanted the whole lense smoked you could tint it lightly. there is something called NITE SHADES that is supposed to work very well about $8 a can of spray tint. i believe it's glossy too so it will look nice and shiny. just another option for you. in case you don't want to crack open the lenses.

I didn't put it in the oven to "Smoke" it...I put it in there to make the adhesive soft so it could be pulled apart....I had to spray paint the lenses to "Smoke" them...
