Talking Time to black out the headlights!
I guess there's no time like the present. I'll be around for the next 3 weekends folks...

this weekend Monique's daughter is gonna be staying with her, the one after looks like she's going to her grandparent's for their anniversary and then the next is mommy's day which we'll both be with our mothers....and of course her kids with her.....and I'll also be using this time to take in the May 7th meet and then stay at mom's for the weekend.


I feel like blacking out my headlights...anyone have experience with this? I don't even really know what paint to get.

I have to stop my one light from foggin up on me too...lol.

Does it include tricks like what skiboard mentioned to me of using shaving cream on the inside- purpose to leave a slight oily film behind to resist fogging?

I still think this trick is funny to think about but hey, if it works - it works. Reminds me I should get my lights off my car while its in the shop...

I think I need to get more silicone as well as the paint. I would also need to un-fog the one light and I'm guessing clean the lenses.
