Hello everyone! I just purchased a black on black 08 today. Love it! Anyway, the headlight lenses have condensation in them and I want to replace them. All I can find are factory replacements and I want something that looks a lot cooler. Recommendations? After browsing the forum a bit I saw a user, Chulo I believe, that had a pic of his car and the lenses he had looked sweet. Anyone know what they are or where to get them??

Bake them, open them up, clean up the condensation and paint the inside however you like.

Yup.

OK I've researched how to do that and it sounds like a great idea. I'll also paint the housings black while I'm at it. Since they are condensated now, do I need to use some additional sealant when I put them back together so they don't get condensation built up again?

Also, my car is an 08 and sure looks like I have factory HID headlights. Is there anything I should be aware/careful of with this setup while removing and painting the housings?

You should probably change/add sealant. Many people even outside of Nissan use Nissan butyl sealant, which can be found at http://www.mynismo.com/products/?id=5577 or anywhere else you can find it. Before baking just remove all wiring, bulbs, ballasts, screws, and metal. The projectors inside the headlight will be fine.
