Yeah me too... The only car I've seen with red in the lights, I didn't like cause the red wasn't color matched. I think it would look cool if you color matched the flat face of the bezel, but the inside circular part that extrudes out from the bulb, paint those gloss black!

I think someone on this forum had color matched headlights. I wasn't a fan of it. I need me some projector headlights and then black them out!!
