Satin Black Headlights w/pics!

Alright, I spent the majority of my weekend on this tedious project but the results speak for themselves. I decided to paint the projector shrouds and parking lights satin as well (Others have left them chrome). I also threw in the STi-R clear lenses and modded the shileds (thanks VstyLe09 & Geemy!) Enough babbling... on to the pics

Thanks to all.... added a daytime pic to the OP showing the chrome turn signal and fog reflectors don't stand out as much as the photo in the garage at dusk.

ART + Q300 = one mean sounding G. You wouldn't expect that sound to be coming from a Japanese car.

I'll take one tonight, still need to adjust both projectors. I have Ultinon 6K's so hopefully it's nice and clean.

Thanks all..... here's the cutoff pic of the passenger side while adjusting. The driver side was not as crisp as this (still better than stock though). I'm thinking maybe the glass wasn't as good of quality as the passenger side??? Anyways, overall visibility is greatly improved.

Nice, that looks much much better than stock. Does the yellow turn into blue from distance?
