maximumsportZ's post of his blacked out housings confirmed my decision to black out my housings, so I took the plunge last night. The lenses look dirty since the candy paint I used has a silver pearl in it. I still need to clean up the silicone a bit, but other then that I love them! Enjoy!

 

looks good rick. good job.

 

Looks great man!!! I wonder how that'd look on a PPW...

 

hey rick you should have went two tone on the lights top right half black and the rest color matched... but thats just an idea i have lol anyways looks great!

 

Looks sweet Rick... how long did it take for you to do?

 

Too long since it was the first time I tried it. If you can pay someone to do it for you it is worth it. I just didn't see the point in paying someone to paint it for me for 2-3 bills and I had to pull apart the lights anyways

 

Nice!

man im really diggin your car. looks hot.

i knew i should have waited and blacked out the headlights too. i think ill have to take my lights apart again this weekend and do it.

what kind of paint did you use and is there a step by step guide on here to help you do this?

thanks!!

 

Yea, i'd be interested in a guide as well..thanks!

Great look btw!

Tight!

 

Thanks man! However, I personally like your headlights the way they are since it goes really well with the high polish you have on your wheels!

Here is the guide I used, but it definitely can use some revising. The biggest PITA is putting back the HID bulbs. WTH was nissan thinking?

I used spray paint from the local store since I went with a flat black to match my wheels. Nothing fancy, but it turned out great

 

your car looked mean, now it looks meaner!

 

 

I'm glad I could inspire you, because damn your car looks super nice!! the headlights definately gives it a more powerful look infront! good job man!
