My advice would be to either leave your headlights alone or pick up some authentic CTR headlights. I painted my headlight housings black a couple years ago. At first it looks ok, but now I definitely regret doing it. That's why I just picked up some CTRs

ha, i wish, its sick, but the car is a 96-98 front end, registered in 99, and that BYS bumper is for 99-00 front ends

 

i eventually want the front end to look something like this. clean, not over the top at all..



oh, mortarion, i can take this pic down if u want me to.. (if you see this thhread..)
