best site to buy

So i want to buy new headlights and tail lights ( black housing) for my civic. I found an excellent online site however when it came type for shipping cost it turned out to be more than the actual product ....

150 for products ( tail light , headlights and front grill)
200 for shipping cost

I ve check a few canadian sites but they want 250+ for a set of headlights. Where do you guys buy your parts or what site would you recomment , or even better a store in toronto, ....I dont mind driving to buffalo or somewhere close in the us borders...

thanks

In terms of headlights, I would just DIY blackout your own. Easy enough and it will cost you 10 bucks.

Otherwise I would just check here and on kijiji and whatnot for people selling them (used).

Most aftermarket headlamps are poor quality..especially from ebay. JDM or DIY is the best way to go.

PS: Don't smoke your lenses

As stated above...just blackout your headlights on your own. MUCH cheaper and it will also look better
