Did you paint your corners and housing headlights on your own?

I did the headlights when I put the projectors in. I used 1500 degree hightemp paint. It matched the eBay black signals perfectly. If I was betting I would say that the black signals are being made in someone’s garage in the same manner I painted the headlights LOL.

dang, those headlights look good with black housing

oh and you cant paint your whole headlight housing if you wanted to go that route unless you convert to a custom projector unit. you could only do the outside edge.

Low-temp setting on oven for about 10-15 minutes. Pulled right apart.

Get some more close up pictures of your headlight housing. I'd be interested to take a closer look at it!
