just headlights... hell, I'd host everyone, and we could do it at my house, but we gotta find someone that can do it flawlessly.

I may do this one day as well. I have a fly stuck in my headlight and opening it up is the only way I'll ever get it out. If I do have it opened up, I might as well do something with it.

The thing I (and probably most thinking of doing this) is that the headlights for our cars cost ~$1k each to replace. That's a lot for some experimental modding.

if anyone wants to tackle this and needs a hand, I'm always open to working on cars over a few drinks or whatever. It's always good times. Then after that me and whoever can start charging everyone else muahahah

I really just want to get the damn fly out of my headlight. I thought about painting the housing, but not sure if I want to do that. Might just be another hassle when I go to sell/trade the car down the line. |

100% down
yeah blacked out headlights make a HUGE difference on all cars. I've seen a few of the DIY threads on this forum and yeah I think it looks awesome.. not too sure about the color matching projector shroud.. but to each their own! haha
