Im getting my headlights painted black on the inside, for those who have it can you post a pic of the headlights turned on at night?

It was brought to my attention that the black paint will make the headlight output dimmer, can anyone comment on the difference in lighting after painting?

ivorygt should be able to chime in and comment on this...

nice!

It won't affect light output. If you're painting 03-05 lamps, you're not touching the reflector at the rear, just the outer enclosure. Its the rear reflector that generates your light output. Any light you might get from the bezel is glare from scattered reflection.

06+ projectors aren't affected because the light passes solely through the glass dome.

You'll be fine.



Reminds me, I need to put a post up in the marketplace. These headlights are for sale.

Black housing headlights are so sick.

Some day pics

looks great....was it difficult to do or did you pay someone?

interesting take on the shroud, instead of leaving the whole shroud chrome, you made the rear part black. Looks good.

They are dirty but here you go:

nice! you did a good job on those. Now your headlights are as badass as your car. hah.

All those headlights look sick!

You guys use gloss black or matte black?

matte would look better imo

ooh soo pretty ooh soo pretty...

Thank you!
Any compliments from the master make me feel quite good.
