What's up Jason......(accordv6O2 from av6.com---what happened to the site?) I like the look of the lights blacked out with the orange reflector in, I saw the pictures of a guys car that did that and I thought it looked pretty original. I'd go that route, it'll set your car apart (as if it isn't already ) from the crowd, everybody has regular old blackhousings anymore, I think leaving the strip in and blacking it out gives it more of an OEM look.
