This is the headlight housing right?

The headlights look amazing this way! I really want to do this. Anyone know how?!?! Plz help!

Bake your headlamp, pry it open, mask everything, then paint it.

 

[CuKoup]

Yeah, baking them in your oven then prying them open would probably be the cheapest way of doing it. You may also be able to find a set of headlights already like that so you will have your stockers as an extra set.

I've seen different models with black or silver. It may depend on when they were made and where.

 

[patyouknow]

those headlights do look great! like posted you can bake them in the oven pull them apart and paint them or wait for a company to sell them all black, i havent seen any though.

 

[blkkoup]

That looks amazing!

 

[fas93]

Ah! Baking headlights?!! That doesn't sound appetizing! Lol. Dam, that sounds really hard to do. But this looks too amazing to pass up!

its not hard to do at all actually. ive done it to almost all the cars ive owned. on other forum websites, i was an AMM (approved merchant member) where people would mail me thier lights, i would paint to thier liking, and mail them back. i would even install projector housings into thier lights, and install HID as well. when the got their lights back, all the had to do was put them back on thier car, and mount the ballast where they pleased.

i actually am going to do this to my Koups healights, but im waiting on projector housings to come out for the H11 bulbs

Ah i need to get on this then! I'm really scared I'm gonna ruin something....

the two hardest parts are when taking the healight apart, to to pry it open EVENLY all the way around, to prevent kinks in the seal. and when putting it back together. making sure that you seal it all the way back up, so that way you dont get foggy headlights when you drive

 

[SubtleStyle]

so that way you dont get foggy headlights when you drive

That's my biggest concern. I've been wanting to do this for months now after I saw it done on a Genesis Coupe but I want it to look professional and have absolutely no problems which I don't think I could achieve myself.

When I'm done with my other mods I plan on converting the tail lights to all LED and convert the head lights to HID projectors. I'll probably just order the parts and pay for labor at a tuner shop. Benny, maybe you could start providing services for members here when the parts are available?

 

[Bennykins18]

Thants what i plan on doing, but right now im just waiting on Retrofit Source to come out with Projector housing for the H11 bulb. And even if you guys dont want Projector housing, i can always paint them black, red, or whatever color you would want your bezel to be.
