Default depo headlights

I'm surprised depo hasn't came out with a headlight with the 2011-2012 look, they'd make a killing and it would be way cheaper then the oem one's and it can be easier to customize them with better projectors , led's , etc.....

you have depo headlights for the IS? i wasn't aware they made them. I had a pair for my benz and they were pretty good all i did was swap the projectors for some tsx one's and they were perfect.......i've seen how much the 2012 headlights go for and i know i don't want to pay 1200 or more for a set so i'd rather get the depo's and do my own retrofit for less...

My old GS400 from 4 years ago still has the DEPO LED TAIL LIGHTS. They are in near mint condition. Actually I never even sealed them. Still going strong today no LED's out. I always thought they would make the tails for the second Gen IS. Waiting also if they will make at least the headlights in black housing. They do for other makes & models.

I had Depo 1pc headlights on my '95 Civic that I daily'd for years. Never had any peeling or yellowing of the lenses.
