Default 03-05 headlight housing..

Okay, so I know everybody says it's pointless to paint the 03 headlights due to the reflective surface. But I'd rather try it out than spend the $$ on 06+ What if when i painted them, I left both the dim and hi beam chrome? Would that help ensure a minimum loss of light output? If anybody has done this to the 93-05 lights, please post a picture.

Still doesn't answer my question. Maybe you could just answer my question instead of sending me to pages that I've already been through.

You asked for advice if it would affect the output..
if you dont paint the reflecting area , the answer would be no.


you also asked for a picture.
if youve already seen the pages i linked, then why dos this thread exist?
Just go paint your lights. This is pointless.

And thats why you get todays lurk award..

I don't know if it's me but it seems lately there are many members on here, both new and old, that just don't understand how to think for themselves.

OP, listen to bmccann101. If you typed in "03 350z painted headlight" into , you would find a pic. I did and found 8 of the first 15 images with your needs.

My suggestion, keep saving and go for the '06+ bi-xenons. You'll be glad you did. /thread
