Lightbulb DIY: Oracle HID Halo kit - Baking Headlights

I noticed upgrading the headlights with HID, LED, HALO, Painting, etc. has become very popular. In doing much research, I am not a fan of the blue-purple light, so I got the 6000k Halo kit from oracle and the upgrade to 6000k low beam, and high beam as well. I have a 03 coupe with 06 lights for the projectors. It was easy to get them apart by baking them at 210 for 12 minutes. Perfect because you just untwist the caps and put in the whole thing in oven and don't need to take them apart! But I am stuck in thinking if I should paint the Chrome housing around just the projector. Has anyone done this with pictures to show?? I would like to see!

That looks really nice. Yesterday I replaced a burnt-out HID bulb and contemplated opening up the headlights while I was in there. After getting the bulb swapped I elected against it haha

Hey to the people that have done this, how hard was the Install? I'm really thinking of doing the Oracle HID halo kit but don't know how hard it is. I have a 2003 coupe with the factory HIDS. Please let me know. Thanks
