I see they used JDM headlights for the CRV and JDM taillights for the Fit... it seems as though someone from Honda is finally paying attention. Unfortunately we still won't get them on the production cars.

Also, why can't all Fits come with those dark headlights? Grrrr... sometimes Honda frustrates me.

Potenza..........I don't know a lot about "JDM" lights, but I do know that all auto manufacturers must pass FMVSS 108 specifications for all lights. Based on the fact that the JDM lights appear to have tinted lenses, I doubt that these lights would be street legal in the US. I would be surprised if Honda or most other manufacturers would actually spend a lot of extra money to design a light with enough luminance to have tinted lenses and pass the legal requirements. You may see the cool looking lights on the prototypes, but not vehicles produced in mass quantities.
