I was planning on redoing my headlights this weekend and I needed an opinion on which looked better? It seems like the gloss would flow better with the shiny paint. but everyone else has flat black. does that mean that yall have saw the gloss and it looks dumb? i wanted this to be a poll but i dont know how. so if you could post your opinion.

Big word of advise. Do not forget to paint the circle where the parking light goes.. you will regret doing so, trust me. And when you do work on the parking light, try to get the edge as perfectly as you can- even if it means spending 3-4 hours applying painters paint.

gloss is not that glossy though. After it dries it almost looks like flat black. Anywayz, I used black gloss brake caliper paint. Its just as good as high temp paint.

Flat black, if you notice most cars that have black out head lights from the factory come flat black.

DC5R uses a shiny black in their headlight housing. i dont even think its black chrome like the other type Rs.
