Bordeaux redhoused!

[Dobermann]

I didn't want to black house, but I wanted to do something. I like the fit headlights when they had colour matched housing. So, bordeaux red house it is! I did a search before and I feel as though I'm one of, if not the only person with matched housing headlights. There was a guy that was talking about rosewood headlights but I didnt see pics.

Anyways, heres the project so far!






















Tell me what you think!

They look nice, but you're going to have a hell of a time closing the hood.

F20A CB7 has white-housed but you may be the first, otherwise.

The red isnt as prominent as i thought it would be.

^^ thanks for the shout lol.

Ya I encourage colored housing, looks fuckin sweet.. Im not only 1 that I no of to rock colored housed lights..

Up until recent I seen another colored matched set, same color as my car I forgot the color its not brown... and yours..

How ever im not the first to white house, Night Wolf was, but he took them out, but yep, check my blk housed thread.

I even painted my lense, the inside top bottom and sides, looks nice.

Honestly i would need to see a picture of them mounted on the car, so far they look good though.

Looking good. I was gonna suggest painting the background red too but that would be too much red in my opinion!

Not bad... I've always thought about color-matching, but never did it.

Black-out the sides and leave the top and bottom Bordeaux

LOL!! Seriously, they came out good.Id like to see a picture when theyre mounted.i saw a 98 Accord with color matched lights in an old magazine a few years back and it looked great.Props for straying away from the traditional black housing.I like it!

they look good, but as stated before you should have painted the sides and I think it would have looked sick

[syer91]

wow!!! but its differnt

I wanted to do Bordeaux Red when I had my 92 DX coupe... but I crashed it before I got to it. I had mesh in the grille that was painted that color as well... would've flowed nicely!

I think I've seen an Arcadia Green car with green lights... it's a really cool idea. Looks good!

A guy in Jersey I think, had JDM 1-pcs that had the housing rosewood paint matched. Dom I think?
