Painted part of my Housings black...*pics*

Just wanted to share...dunno how much you guys like it but it looks only okay to me right now cause i have a fugged up bumper and no front caps. Within the next few months i'm gonna get the altezza grill, replace the front bumper and get a kaminari lip, put back the caps, fix my control arm, and lower my car 1.5". Update you guys later!

Yeah i took off the two front caps...i went drifting(dont ask why) and i hit a gutter which hit my right side and cracked the cap and bent my control arm...so i just took the other cap off to match haha.
Thanks for the compliments djlun, 01blackem, az2k1, netbc and aznmikE! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

yeah, i'd like to know how you painted those, too. I wanna do that, and I'm probably gonna use the hi-temp black spraypaint they have at home depot.

hehe its skill! it is really difficult not to get the paint on the other parts of the chrome. I used high-temp engine enamel(universal glossy) from Pep Boys

The headlights are bulbs that are from Japan.....blue bulb.....white/blue tint....

The other driving lights are bulbs from a local import shop....can't quite remember what they are but they are mad expensive, but well worth it
