#67696, "pics of black painted 95-96 lights?"
Feb-26-04 04:23 PM by MCubed45

          

does anyone have pics of black painted 95-96 stock headlights on the car? preferrably on a red car.. kinda thinking about painting my stockers until i get some black dual projectors (to fit a 97+ front). i've seen the writeup on clearing and paiting the headlights (i forget who wrote it) but it didn't have pics of them installed on the car.

anyone got pics? i know thats pretty specific but just wondering. if not, anyone wanna photoshop somethin? emoji

They are painted black on my black one, but I painted them red on my red one. Did you consider that? I think it looks pretty good.

mmm ^^^ sexy...

i thought about the body matching color but i kinda want them to act as accents. i've seen black projectors on red cars and liked it so i was thinking this would look similar.

Now... this guide http://www.auburn.edu/~fauchpj/headlight.htm mentions that he "left out the chrome part" ... Is there just a chrome plate covering black plastic?

"I took the chrome part out of mine because I think it looks better black. Just unscrew the screws and paint it whatever color you like. I chose black because it makes it look like the 97-99 lights."

i.e. he took out the chrome piece and painted it. then he put it back in. there's only one piece you can take out and paint.



thanks dude! emoji
pretty... emoji
