Looks clean and yummy! 
How long did you put it in the oven if you used the hairdryer afterwards?

i put it in the oven for about 10 mins and then i used a blow dryer....this is the 2nd time ive done this and this time it was way easier...oh btw thats member EK-Tuned car. i did take out all the reflectors when i painted....this guy had aftermarket lights and they were a bit diff then oem ...thats why i had to tape off a part on one of the lights cause the other one was diff

They look good even with the orange reflector...which is a wise decision when having to deal with the po-Po.
Just let us know if they leak or fog when it rains though

They look good, but I think you should have used a black paint. The color is kinda hard to notice.

I would of removed the large reflector and left the plastic over the bulb (if I were to leave the orange in). But still way better than the chrome

Very nice I think those are some of the better DIY Black housings I have seen. Other people paint them wayyy too dark or they use a glossy black. Those look VERY nice! Oh, by the way....how come you were hiding from your manager
