Rep Power: 253 Painting 04 headlights?
I have a black 04 & was thinking about doing the black-out headlights. My only concern is that it will be too much black. So I started thinking about other colors/alternatives, so my question is how do you think the housings would look in hyper black/black chrome? I have a feeling that I will have to order real automotive paint & take it to my buddys paint shop since I cant find it in a spray can. Tell me what you think of the color & give me some other Ideas.

Rep Power: 259 I think that the new one's look pretty tight w/ the black on black.
the hyper black might be a little risky if you ask me.
but do whatever you think you'd like

Rep Power: 0 I recently painted my housing black, and i have an 04 vic too, Looks AWSOME! Got a little bit of fog in my right headlight tho, make sure to use silicone to reseal those bitches up good! I gotta wait till summer to air mine out and seal em up better...or wait for projectors.

Rep Power: 0 ive done mine. looks hot.
i think the hyperblack/ black chrome is a great idea. itll look like that member around here who has those JDM housings that are gunmetal colored. i say order the paint n have it painted by ur friend. if he does a good job, itll look fine. AND ull be the only one on here with that so far. uniqueness is the key!

Rep Power: 277 my 04 looks waaaaayyy better with blacked out headlights. good thing is most people around here don't have them. BTW my car is fiji blue but i think it looks good in any color car.
