Headlight work - Matte black and cleared

Lots of other details I haven't mentioned here just because I'm trying to keep it short...not doing a good job of that so far
Maybe it would be helpful if I posted what exhttps://g35driver.com/forums/images/smilies/coolio.gif

If I can find some cheap Lights on ebay I'd be willing to sacrifice them.

It helps when someone in the group has done it before. Now that I've done it once though, I would feel comfortable doing it by myself the next time around. If Truth finds another set he wants to mod up, maybe he will be my next set. I'm waiting till I have a few other things in my hands I want to add to my next set.
Thanks!
Hey Chris, is there any way that you could paint the bezels seperatly and then place them in the headlights I have now. In other words, could I buy a cheap pair off ebay (like you did) and send you them and have them painted and then you send them to me and I place the bezels inside my OEM lights, or is that not possible at all? Reason I ask is because I really want it done and I don't have the ***** to do it. Also, I heard the ebay lights don't fit correctly so thats my reason to this confusing maddness lol. Plus, my G is my daily driver and can't afford to ship my lights out when I need them lol.

i feeel ya mon. projectors are in the works for my black lights (i have some stockers on now i picked up from ebay) i am fortunate enough to have a local friend helping me out this time around! projector signals would be HOT! i ended up putting stock amber signals in the black lights and left the small bezel unpainted. ill have to post up some photos when its all done. it does take time!
