Great Job on the lights,
i think while yu work on painting the bumper, try also painting the top black,if yu have extra paint & time ^.^ [my opinion] it will look amazing.

The only reason i did mine flat black was, I'd thought yo really couldnt tell if it was glossy or not if it was in the housing. Maybe you can but i am not too fond of Glossy paint, except the body. But i assume it looks good with gloss on it??

Now that I think about it idk why i used flat.

Nice blacked effect. I also like that Black masking effect you've done with the lower grill. It makes me wanna reweigh my options converting my '00 SLE's front to 1.5. I think a rubber based paint like Herculiner would work well on that. Two coats should suffice.

Thanks, and yeah i have to refinish the lower part it started to chip a lot. Hmm I always like the 99-00' better than 01+. But whatever you like just do it and make it look nice

are there any suppliers out there that still sell the blacked out headlights?

Off topic, but did you custom make your grill or buy it? JW
