Everyone wants them done

Theres a few guys on the boards that charge to get them done (ivorygt is one of them). You have to ship him your lights, he does them, then ships them back. I think another members SN is Xvert? I forget exactly

i want to blackhouse my lights too. i've done about 6 sets of accord headlights before back at my old pad. The oven where i'm at now doesnt work. All you need to do is take out your headlights and bake in the oven or use heat gun to soften the silicone. Then open it and pull out the housing. Tape off whatever part of the housing you dont want to paint and use high temp paint to paint the housing. Wait till it drys and put it back together. Throw it back in oven or use heatgun again to melt the silicone and squeeze the headlight back together. You might want to add extra silicone around the edge to prevent headlight fogging.
