blacked out my headlights!! (updated with pics!!!)

not that any of you care, but I just thought Id post it on here. I just finished blacking out my '05 headlights. Anyways, theres a DIY on how to do this. It says when you reseal them, you need to silicone it, which is a goood idea. BUT, when I did mine, i just lined up the lens to its original position, and stuck it back in the oven for 3 minutes on 225 degrees, then turned it off for the last 2 minutes. Once the five minutes were up, I pulled the headlight out, and squeezed it back together until all the clips lined up. No leaks at all, as good as new and they look badass. If anyone lives locally and wants help, just PM me.

sweet, hopefully not the way I did. And if you did, be careful driving at night.
