That is a sort of a complicated project. Do it right and get someone with some experience to do that.
since it takes some time and detail, it might cost you some money.

Well, I just picked up a set of 08 headlights today. I'm trying to get a black housing + led's done by a friend. Perhaps, oi can try contacting him and maybe he can help you out for a reasonable price. But pm me if you need his info.

I'm interested in this as well. I did my WRX headlights. It's not that difficult imo. Just got to be careful dealing with the headlights and paint them, then put them back together properly and add sealant to insure no water gets in to create condensation.

^Sounds easy for someone with experience. On he other hand, there have been many failure attempts for the ones without experience. I'd not recommend it to someone without experience since the headlights cost 900-1k++
