Just to make sure. I believe there were 2 versions of SD: black chrome and titanium. You are looking for the latter, right? Also, these are typically pricey items. How much were you looking to spend? Do you need complete (housing, bulb, ballast, leveler) or just the housing? All this may help get the right seller to come out.

Hmm, right. Didn't know that. Wonder if both are dark. Been picking up black pearl, black chrome tidbits and headlights seem like a logical addition. Would need housings only as I could transfer everything over as I did to upgrade to the green tint. I am willing to go $500+ as I know it's a rare find and closest you can find is l-tunedparts 10th anniversary for $1458. Thanks, that helps.

Wouldn't it be easier to just paint the bezels?

cheaper than $1500, thats for sure.

You would have to pry apart the headlamp for that. I sent mine away once to have some angel eyes rings put in. They basically destroyed them and charged me over $500. Looking for used so it won't get up to $1500. Also, I could sell my green tint housings to someone who wants to upgrade to that which I bought new to help offset the cost

I guess.

its not that hard to split the headlight. You have to heat them in the oven first.

Buy a used set on here for like $300 and then try on those.

So if I find the right side, we'll have to share custody.

Default Can you bump a WTB?

I read, but didn't find a definitive answer on that. So I'm still looking for the passenger Sport Design HID headlamp with or without bulbs, ballasts, sub harness, etc.

I have the driver side from 2003. Thanks.
