Taking the bumper and headlight off is easy. The question is are you willing to shell out another $250+ for another headlight if you **** up badly.

He can try himself and succeed and save money. Orgo out and buy a set for $250 already done...

May as well try, it's hard to mess up. Follow my easy step by step directions and you can't go wrong! :thumbup:

I doubt I will mess up, I'm pretty good with that stuff.
Besides I have another set of headlights if I do.

High heat Tremclad it is!

DIY blackout headlights Guide. - Club RSX Message Board

Its not a Civic, but its essentially the exact same layout, screws will be in different locations though.

and this guy says... 210 Degrees X 8mins
Ive seen a lot of people say 350 - 400 X 4 minutes

Other than that... its the same
