Painted 08 headlights

[triflin]

Yeah, so I decided I wasn't scared anymore and I put my headlights to bake, lol! They look a million times better in my opinion. Tell me what you think. Pics on the car will go up tomorrow, I have to let them set overnight to cool off so the moister wont build up in them from the heat.

Looks good......i'm a big fan of smoked/painted lights.......

[triflin]

Thanks, I need to do my tails now to match.

do your high beams still work, or do you not care? lol

[scionxb.org]

They look great, Cory! Nice job!!

[triflin]

IDK if my highbeams still work, they aren't on the car yet, but I really don't care, lol! I don't ever use them anyway. I turned them on once since I've had mycar, and that was to make sure the Xenon bulbs I put in worked, lol!

Thanks for the comments.

Yeah definatly look awsome. Planning this as a mod for mine when I get it. Definatly not gonna have very bright brights after painting the reflector. Its a shame the highs aren't projectors as well that would look sick. Wonder if someone will make a after market light like that.

any pics of em on the car?

[enufced904]

That looks really good man!

[Eros]

[triflin]

Thanks for the compliments. I just used some black Krylon Fusion paint that I had lying around.

[Luc1f3r]

looks sick! now black out the turn signals in the side mirrors, get the bumper vinyl and black rims!

[triflin]

Ok, give me money! :p

Lol! That's in the works.....well everything but the side mirrors. Leaving them white cuz I changed out the LED's in them already.

[xscionB]

DAMN! that's awesome!:love:

[enufced904]

wow man.. those look really good ..

[Big-Kokujin]

I couldnt tell in the other thread that they were black...but I can deff tell in that one...they look badass...

For the bumper just peel the tape off the pillars and use that...LOL

Why not paint it?

[Big-Kokujin]

Ohh I see now...*sidescroll*

you should use VHT niteshades for the turn signals, and take out the amber in the headlights, or VHT them too. Looks like the halo's from a first Gen would fit nicely too. I still have the ones from my old set...

[triflin]

Bluebatmobile has the front overlay for like $40, so I'm just going with that. I like the turn signals the way they are so I'm not changing them.

Thanks for the compliments though!

Absolutely 10000000% better.
I want to do it bad but i lack the how do you say, balls, to do so.
great job, super clean.

Looks good! Now you just gotta do something with the grills! Let me know if you do I gotta find something to do with mine too...

I love the painted headlights I was thinking of doing the same thing.
