Red Headlights yes? no? redo?
ok so ive been playing around with headlights and for my z being red i wanted to red housing instead of black or stock. I tried it and this is where im at so far.[/IMG]
IDK im thinking im going to finish up with that silver part black, or should i just go all out red? i will install it on the car in a few days after it gets finished to c if i like the look. Also imagine it on a red z with a black hood. I have the hood in the garage i just havent put it on because i can not decide what i want to do yet lol.

You do NOT want to paint over the reflector area on the 03-05 lights. It is 100% needed for the light output to be useful. The 06+ lights use an upgraded projector for both high and low beams and that's why it is safe to paint them.

Ima still try it out to see what it would have looked like and put up pictures
for you guys lol. even if its tacky. the job on the light isnt bad. the picture makes it look like that, buts its pretty good. how it will look on the car however is another story. also was thinking if i didnt go this way that i would smoke them, what do u think? the tails r alrdy black

It doesn't look "real bad" but it does need some contrasting color. Maybe had you left the reflectors alone, or maybe throw a little black or whatever your secondary color is that you're going with. It's just gonna be ALOT of red. Theres a such thing as too much. Other than that, atleast you're being creative.
