Questions about JDM front Headlights

Whats up guys, Im in the process of piecing together a Jdm frontend for 07 Honda Fit.

I have some questions on headlights that were offered to the Fit and what model they come on, as I have only seen a handful with these types of headlights.

Below are pics of what Im talking about.. The 2nd to the last Yellow Fit has "Ctr" style Black chromish inner housing headlights and not color matched.





Did a certain year come with these? Could anyone point me in the right direction, on where I could get a set? Also, is that an OEM frontlip?

Thanks for ANY help you can provide

so you're wondering why that Fit doesn't have a color matched inner housing? i think those people just buy oem headlights of a different color and put them on. jdmchris.com did it to his car. maybe i'm not answering your question correctly... but i tried

you can actually buy the blackhousing ones. AJ-R sells both the color matched and blackones. Ive also seen the all chrome ones. Also the lips on those Fits are the Modulo lips it is a Honda part kinda like our HFP, if your familiar with the S2000 you probably know the modulo stuff.

Actually there are 3 types of headlight in the picture from what I can tell.
Red = more body color, less chrome(Jazz)
Green = more chrome, less body color(JDM Fit)
Blue = same as Green but flat black housing(JDM Fit/Jazz)

Outside the US, There are so many configuration you can get the GD3 in. It's ridiculous trying to figure out what comes with what. But IMO Green and Blue looks the Best. The red just look too close to USDM to strike as "different".

BTW don't quote me on the describtion as to what parts of the world those headlights belong, I took a guess on those by surfing Honda's site in different country.

The red ones are pre-mmc headlights. Notice that the mmc headlights have a blue thingy on the upper part. The headlights on the a&j racing website are the mmc ones
