depends if u like it shiny or not.. if u do.. use a gloss black.. if not.. a regular black will do.. make sure u put enough coats and make it even.. and when u put the headlamp back togetherm make sure u reseal it perfectly or it may fog up when u wash the car and stuff... good luck !

No it wouldn't.. you aren't painting the actually place where the light is.. you are painting the trim around it..

you wont hurt the output of your headlight because your not painting where the light comes out of your headlight... your painting other parts of the housing.
