i searched for this topic but there just too much threads bout it and not enough pics to show the headlights...well i just wanted ppl with painted headlights to post some pics.

 

 

Gun Metal

 

Whats the process to open? Pop em in the oven, or are they like the Maxima tails that are one piece?

 

^check the DIY section but the oven is the way to go.

 

Sounds good. Gonna have to do some matte black or gun metal on my IP!

 

wow how did you paint them like that.??? must of been mad taping

 

Those are by far the sickest headlights I have ever seen.

 

Thanx...yeah it took madd masking skills and patience. I used the 'green' professional tape rather than the common 'blue' tape to bend around the curves.

Wanted to do the projector housing too, but it's not a separate piece as I thought and masking the inner bezel around that was beyond my skills for my **** standards lol.

Primed:


Painted (those spots are dusk on lens not bezel)


Did my grill to match:


Another angle of finished headlight.

 

^wow thats sick dude...

 

^ Thanx. I'm feelin it and like the results. My idea dammit!! j/k
You have an OB. IMO would look awesome painted black like my style (GTR style kinda like 'blue bats' smoked GTR style overlays) or go all black like many do.

Surprised not others with pix other than me and Cubanl81. Know many who've done this headlight paint mod...

G/L

 

anyone bs or dg that color matched? I plan on color matching mine BS similar to V35 Skyline GT's

 

^Similar effect with DG color overlays I tried long time ago....

 

^ yea it just looks a lot cleaner to paint the inside housing but nice

 

I have Bats GTR overlays but after seeing how sick they look painted I think I'm gonna go that way. You ride looks good tho.
