A friend of mine and I decided to paint his headlights since he liked how my tails came out. So I took the opportunity to use him as a guinea pig to see how it would come out before I did it myself. What do you guys think?

its not bad....a nice try to DIY, but should have taken more time possibly.

-taking the lights off
-using actual paint rather then rattle can tint


props...and nice try!

Had my headlights painted flat black by Igor and Alex from 180custom. Love the way it looks, goes well with the plastidip grille.

^^^I'm very happy to check back to this thread and actually see you took parts OFF your car to get them painted the right way. Great choice with IGOR for the headlights!
