I want to paint my headlights, but i started thinking, eveyone around here has "jdm" like headlights on their headlights.

So i was wondering if it would look good doing the inside red to match the car, or would that be ugly.

I've seen done once on a car in Ft. lauderdale but that was a year ago.

If anyone has a pic of one post or point me the right direction

 

bump. give me some feedback

 

what do you plan to paint?

 

the headlights (color matched to car rather then just black

 

don't do it...

 

why not? have you seen it done? if so give me a pic so i can decide.

 

come on talk to me

 

You mean something like new corvettes and ferraris and such, where the inside is painted like the body?

I don't know, it might look bad, it might look good.

thats exactly what i mean. i've seen it done once on a car driving by. i'm considering doing it to my stock ones, and if i dont like them, just getting some ctr's, but i'm trying to save up for turbo so...

 

do whatever you want to, H-T doesnt always have the best ideas for YOUR car... make your car how you wish

 

I just hope your car isn't red. You'll have altezza headlights.

What do you mean by that?

 

Do IT . i wanna see it, better you than me j/p

 

well I kinda want to see it first. maybe if someone can do a photoshop of one.

 

Do it! I wanna see. I think that would be og. I like jdm black housing myself, but then my car is black. I would say go for it and don't worry about what people think on this site. A lot of people on here are haters n e way and afraid to try something new, just copy what everyone else does. You'll know if it looks whack. Post pix when you're done.

 

Ive thought about this before, but I didnt post for fear of getting banned. lol

please post pics!!

 

dude just do it....i wanna see how it looks.

 

i feel like the peer pressure is getting to me, but I'LL DO IT

 

Ugh....its gonna turn out shitty but hey, its your car.

Post pics so we can laugh at you .

 

I've seen it done once. The owner posted it on JDMCivic.com a long time ago. He had a Red 99-00 Si. IMO it looked nasty.

 

i got to see this

 

I thought about doing that before i got my CTRs ... i say do it!

 

gay

 

i think it is ricey and will look terrible, they used to do that years ago when bodykits and neons were in, didn;t like it then and don't like it now

 

man its yer car. if ya wanna do it, then do it. if not, no sweat. I wouldn't do it on stock headlights tho cuz it'll look gross. If you has some after market 1 piece headlights with the black housing, that might look good. or, the black huosing headlights with the matching corners. make sure they have the clear lenses and not the stock looking ones.

personally, i think cars should be built from the inside out. make it fast first, then personalize it later. wild kits, neons, etc. and widebody style was kewl b4, now it's all about mild, clean, jdm and being fast of course. just keep that stuff in mind when building yer car.
gud luk man. i hope it comes out nice and post pix when yer done. it may look nice, but just be ready for haters that'll tell you yer stuff looks like ****, unless it really does, then don't post it. common sense.
