Rep Power: 277 no i didn't do it myself, i just bought them off a member here, but looking back at it now it is a pretty simple diy. all you need to do is follow the diy instructions. i don't regret getting blacked out either ince i'm not a big fan of chrome. the less the better. how can you deny it anyways it looks pretty good.

Rep Power: 0 its really not that hard. just got to be carefull while your doing it, so you dont brake nething. its a great project to do, especially if ur not confident in doing much things yourself, because its pretty easy.

Rep Power: 0 04 looks SOOO much better blacked out, I still love my lights, even tho I got a little bit of fog in the right one, still looks nice as hell!!
Make sure you seal urs up with some silicon to keep the moisture out.

Rep Power: 270 Nice work kornished! Did you guys run into any problems at all?
I want to do mine too, but the whole taking the glass off the headlight thing has me a little concerned, but from what everyone says, it shouldn't be that hard.

Rep Power: 355 Very nice, I love blue/black color combos! I dont know about 04 DIY Clearing of headlights, but I did my 01 and it took less than a 1/2 hour including taking off the front bumper and everything, suppose that if you black it out, obviously it will take a little longer to paint, lol but you get the idea...
