Anyone know of a place where i can get these cheaper without having to order from USA? (besides JDMyard)
Farkin $50 postage my ass -_-
edit: or should i just spray that shit from the outside without taking off the front bumper.

Have you tried any wrecker's yards? Unless you really want new and unused...
There are around 4 Honda wreckers in and around Clayton which I assume you live close to. I've been to HondWreck to get some front indicators and they charged me $35 for a single pre-facelift indicator. I'm sure they have some facelifted ones as well.

The wreckers yards are often quite expensive

you dont have to remove the bumper to get the indicators out, just one screw each. :)
spray actually looks ok from what I've seen.
the thing I'm wondering about is if it will make your parkers yellow like foglights :P
might look cool :)

I think you mean you can go back to clear? Anyways here's a picture of my sprayed indicators, i don't know the laws about having orange parker lights so i took the bulbs out

Nah steeeven, i meant if i bought a set of amber, i can change between clear and amber if i don't like one. Whereas if i spray it, i'll have to either have funny looking lights (assuming spray job goes bad) or strip the paint off. Why would you get cop trouble with spraying indicators? I don't know the law regarding it but i don't think anyone even notices if they're sprayed or not

Since my car colour isn't a very common one i can't seem to find pics of it with amber indicators, what you guys reckon? Should i stay clear or go amber?

IMO clear looks good because it's the same as your headlights, but there's no harm in trying new things. Maybe use photoshop to change the colour of your indicators in that picture so that you can get a bit of a visual.
