Default Headlight mod???

Anyone ever see a kit to change the headlight trim to the old style like whats in this pic? Not the grill, the trim around the headlights.. Starting in 2005, it was a clear plastic front headlight cover. This is old style which I do like the look.

I'm not sure I understand the question. My '07 has the OE fogs which have black trim.

My best guess is that he means the area inside the headlight housing is the same color as the car

Yeah, I thought starting in 2005 they all had the clear plastic lens in front of the headlights. This pic is just the headlight itself with a color match trim ring around it, no clear plastic lens in front.

Not the fog lights, the headlights.

I think he means having the open bucket on the headlights. I don't know of any kit off hand but a few people have posted a how-to that you can do yourself.

Very cool, thanks for the info guys! I have the HID option so, I don't think I would do this mod. But it's a very cool mod, I do like the open bucket look.
