Arrow UPDATE PART 5: Custom Painted Black Chrome/Satin Black Headlights FTW

Over the weekend I had my headlights custom painted by John (Stanced370z) and I am in love with the results!

I wanted something different, so we went with a satin black and black chrome color scheme. It's satin black on the projector shrouds, drl reflector, turn signal reflector, and amber strip. Black chrome on the housings themselves. I absolutely love how the black chrome colors shifts when sunlight hits it and the contrast with the satin black. The result was a headlight that is aggressive but still retains a clean look to it.

If you are thinking about having your headlights done I HIGHLY RECOMMEND John (Stanced370z). Other than myself he is the biggest perfectionist i've ever met and that's the type of person you want working on a $40k+ car. Takes his time and isn’t satisfied unless its absolutely perfect. PM him or me and I can get you in touch with him. On to the pics!

Saw these in person , never thought Stanced could do such a amazing job, because of his work and ants car looking sick I traded my lights just last night so I can redo mine, also I love how stealthy the front end looks. Nice work man I really like how it turned out looks so aggressive....

Johnathan is the ****!!! He's got my business coming.
