New headlight help on ebay

Hey guys, I'm in the market for new headlights and really dont have enough money for retro's so i'm gonna go the cheap way and head over to ebay. I was wondering if any of you know what company is good to buy from? I'm looking for blacked out headlights and I guess I'm gonna have to get the angel eyes unless there is any other option. I know alot of you think this may be rice but its really my only option for right now. I'm tired of the headlights I have now and really want to change it up some. A link would be great. thanks and please no bashing this thread.

Take your headlights apart and clear them or paint some stuff inside. This will hold you over while you save up for retros.

I know you said you dont have the money for other than "ebay" headlights but procivic has some nice looking headlights for our cars. Run about 250-315ish, save up and get those. You will be happier

I bought all my parts from Customlights and bought a new set of headlights on top of that and my total was only $780 I think.

you can afford retros... customlightz is not the only company that does retro projector fitting. search around and find a company to fit your price range. Ebay lights=FAIL
