I have a 5th Gen Prelude and I would like to black out the headlights to get the JDM look. Has someone ever done it to their prelude? Can someone help...pictures would be great also. I tried using a heat gun around a messed up 5th Gen headlight but the adhesive they use is really strong and using the heat gun and prying it with a screw driver just damages the headlight because the plastic is soft and tender. Any kind of help would be nice. THANK YOU.

 

i am not sure where you could find that but im sure if you contactKing Motorsports they could help you locate that certain part. To tell you the truth i am unsure if that was actually how they look.
good luck

 

theres a write-up on PO.com

 

what part of the light are you planning on blacking out? most of it is reflective...

 

You are going to have to heat up your headlights and pry the cover apart in order to paint the crome part of the headlight black. The way I did it was, I put my headlights in my oven at about 350 degrees for about 6-8 min. at a time and check on them in between, then little by little, I pry the cover off with a flat head screw driver....

 

I blacked out my headlights.....I'll post up pics when i find my digital camera.

 

Do you mean blacking-out the interior? There isnt really anything you can black out on a 5th Gen Prelude. Well, there is, but it will look like crap and the headlights will no longer project light very well.

 

JDM 5th gen headlights are identical to the ones you have. i know this because I used to live in Japan.
