More than likely those are custom-made retrofits utilizing the Acura or now even standard Honda “jewel” LED projector array and fitted into the OEM housings. Typically not easy and also not cheap currently. Those headlight assemblies still cost big bucks to buy second-hand to scavenge parts from for retros like this. I’m sure someone paid a lot of money to make that happen; especially given it’s also LS-swapped, on bags, has a nutty body kit and aero that seems well-done....there’s a lot of custom money right there.

These guys will do something similar:

...for close to 2 grand.

What S2kys said. Those aren't an off the shelf item but require quite a bit of work. Though the ones pn that car look better than the ones I have seen before on a blue car. Maybe it is the angle the picture is taken at but they can look odd. I personally like the OEM headlights and wouldn't put anything else in their place. Often when I see aftermarket headlights I always assume the car has been wrecked at some point.

That car was at SEMA this year. Here is another angle. But yeah those are custom fitted (cannot just go online and purchase them somewhere).

Nothing wrong with the oem ones. I love them But this ones fits very well in my opinion. They something else. The only ones I could think to replace the oem ones.

Enhhhhhhh sort of and it would depend on what state you were trying to register it in. It wouldn't pass in California but in Montana or a lot of other places it would be easy to register it.

Why not pass? (Just curious.)

(I think they're hideous. But so is the car.)
