If a paint my headlights......?

This maybe a stupid question but, If I black my headlight housing black will I need to upgrade or change my headlight bulbs so they will still be bright at night?

you can do it yourself like i did, or you can have a company like MR Works do it for you but it will cost you

:iagree: on doing it yourself. I have something new in mind for mine so we will see how it turns out.

i did it, changing the bulb isnt required but i didnt like 4300k so i upgraded to 8000k.

It was quite easy, bake the headlights for 10-12mins, take the lense off, take all the pieces out. Paint it and re-seal it. Re-sealing was a bitch tho.
