As some of you know i have this:




I want to paint the headlight housing and the reflectors

(retrofitting projectors into the housing so no need for the reflectors)

what color should i go with? please consider my rims. i was thinking gun metal?

 

Picture is not working for me.

 

well its just a picture of my car next to trash mountain. just wanted some input on what color i should paint the reflectors and the housing and an e 46 bixenon shroud

 

i think i might be done with my retrofit soon within the weekend or next week my shroud is to big for the low beam so ive decided to put it in my highbeam area. the only thing that is making me worry is the left and right blinkers might smother some of the output is my assumption correct?

 

am i the only one that sees the picture?

 

So you are retrofitting the projectors into the high beam area? What are you going to do for high beams? You have TSX projectors, not BI-Xenons. I too am currently working on my projector retro. I think I have a good plan. I finally bit the bullet and bought a second set of headlights so I could work on them. I am taking my time, so it will prolly be a couple weeks until I'm done, but I look forward to seeing yours...

As far as your question, I kinda like your gunmetal idea. It would be different. Black housings would be cool with the silver, but it's kinda hard to picture what it would look like totally blacked out.

 

BTW, I can see the pic.

 

oh ok thanks. yeah i know tsx arent bi xenon i really have no use for my high beams. the problem with putting them in the high beams is i have to extend the ignitor wires. ive been taking this project nice and slow just so i can make sure i fix any problem that occurs. I don't think i will fo black because my rims are gun metal. if i had black rims i would of done it. good luck to you to!
