I've got a few questions, my bumper is off, headlights are out, and I'm about to order the paint for my lights. Going to go with Gloss black Krylon Fusion for the housing, AutomotiveTouchup's spray can of Monterey Blue paint for the shrouds, and I'm thinking about VHT night shades for the reflector. Is VHT night shades the best one to use for the smoking?

Also, how are you guys removing the old silicone, any special tools? I watched Nut_N_Much's video of using a heat gun and a cardboard box which looks like a combination of both the oven and heat gun methods combined. Pretty good vid if you guys haven't seen it.

More questions. I'm going to wipe down everything with alcohol, but I wont need to use an Adhesion promoter on the housing if I'm going to be using Krylon Fusion right? because that stuff is made to be used on plastics etc and should stick just fine I think, but on the shrouds where I will be using the Automotive touch up paint I'm assuming I should use an adhesion Promoter?

Maybe I'm over thinking, but I'd just like to get it done right. Any information is helpful and I would love to hear from the guys who have had there's done for a year minimum and see if you have any problems that have occurred and if so what?

Thanks!

Kinda just chillin at the moment!!
