black and white themed headlights

So painted my headlights black last year once I got the car and well finally after the 6th time of opening them up to fix stuff and try to fix water leak I decided to paint the rest white. so here it is. white and black headlights. minus the fog and turn signal which was to hard to do so I left it. plus no more condensation/water leaks in my headlights anymore.

Really like it! I also have a white G. Thinking about doing the same mod but I'm worried about sealing it properly and condensation getting in, especially since I live in humid Houston. How were you finally able to get them properly sealed? And what kind of paint did you use?

Looks very good. I have seen a picture of someone who did the opposite colors. White housing + black projector shroud and parking light cover. I thought that looked really good on a white G.

Thank you. Yea ive seen that before. I just dont like the way it looked if it was opposite. If I did do that I would of gotten the IP paint to do it so it would match since it would deff show a difference in color

Bro looks outstanding this is excatly what I have in mind if I had an IP and I think the next color I get will be that because i love the white on black look. Also, a thought, you could paint the back up cam white to help it blend in i was thinking. idk how it would look though.

Thank you so much man. I think the black helps it blend in alot. Most people dont even notice I have added it on there which is awesome. plus painting it would be a pita
