Well i just started disassembly, God there is a lot to take off to get those damn headlights out. Then once the headlights are out you have to take off all the wires which are a PITA. Very Nervous at this point, but I'm in too deep to turn back. Pray for me! Pics will be up when they are done.

Looking forward to seeing the end result at the April 7th meet; you're planning on attending right?

Update: well the cardboard in the oven is a fire hazard waiting to happen. So i went with a cookie sheet ( just make sure its cool to start) I also tried to smoke out the amber strips, the VHT Nite Shades cracked up. I decided to just spray them black like the housings.
the paint is now drying in the sun.
