hey guys i was just wondering what yall thought of these headlights... i just painted them yesterday. I have another set of stock 03 hid headlights so i figured i wud try to at least paint one set to see how well they come out... IMO i like them so what do yall think.....

 

some more pics

 

and some more

 

Those look very nice. Good Job

 

they look good on your car. Do you want to sell me your other set of stock headlights for the cheap?

 

nice, what kind of paint did you use.

 

looks good

 

nice you even painted the silver projector. What color did you go with? and which bulb did you replace the amber bulb with?(above the projector)

 

hey they turn out nice rodney... now u have one more set to do when u come help me..hahaha

 

hey the type of paint i used was just gloss spray paint from advance auto parts but i primered them first and did a little sanding but the amber bulb or turn signal is still the stock bulb i didnt have to replace any bulbs and my other set is already spoken for sorry guys

 

I bet you lost a lot of your low beam light though. I painted my high beams black and I can't even tell their on. I heard you lose about 30% light from you highs if you paint the chrome around the housing.

 

the high beams are pretty much gone, when i turn them on you cant even tell but the low beams or my hid did not really lose any light, they did a little but not enough to complain

 

Looks good. you've got paint game for sure bt this and the headliner.
I really want a shot at installing the bumper tighter though. In your
hl thread I mentioned these deceptive looking square holes in the fender.
I am 99% you or your installer are not using them. They should eliminate
the gap and tighten your front end up.

 

thanks man i will look at the holes you are talking asap i think i know what your talking about

 

Looks good bro..nice job.

Can you still see the turn signals from a distance in the front? Or are they kinda just there now?

 

the turn signals light up good you can still see them just fine

 

Bye-Bye highbeams.

 

Ballsy painting the entire housing. I can't argue with the result- it looks 100x better than people who do not paint the projector area.

Whatever, though... ultimately it's you who has to deal with the decreased light output. If it's worth it, it's worth it.

 

yeah to me it was worth it i couldnt be happier with the results although there are no more high beams but i really never used them anyways so its all good

 

Off-topic, but is it me or is your nose a different shade from the rest of the car?
