I know i've seen members on here doing with it, i wanna get a thread with all members that have them, just makes life a little bit easier.

How many of you guys out there have painted headlights, im thinking of doing this to my SC, but honestly.
Some Sc's with painted headlights look really nice and some of them look dim and ugly.

So i would like to see some pictures.
I know this is a Sc430, but everytime i look at this picture i wanna paint my headlights on my Sc400.

only problem with our headlights is that they are fluted so it makes it look dirty

yea instead of delining my own headlights because there gonna look dull regardless im going to get those ugly headlights off ebay and install them on the oem housing, that clear shiny lens make the painted house pop like it was all oem in the first place

this has been tried before unsuccessfully. even if it worked, the ebay plastic will yellow fast to very fast.

I would simply get out the elbow grease and the 400, 800, 1200, and 2000 grit sandpaper. Don't forget a GOOD polishing compound and plastic cleaner. I promise you that if you do it right: you can get an OEM sheen from a delined headlight.

This is my plan B


Only if there was a way we can "cover up" the top with the 3 bulb slots

a mobstar ive been thinkin for dayz how i was gonna do that to them three hols throw off everything, i was thinkin of just feeling it with bondo or cut a piece of hard plastic and melt it over then sand it to give it a perfect finish

clean

what about a clear reflector over them three hole i mean somethin like a sidemarker would look like, then some how connect them to the turn signals, so that they wont be on all the time, yea thaz what im gonna do

Mobstar

Yah, thats what i had in mind.
But i wander how it would look like with a clear reflector.
Time to photoshop !


**Not the best photoshop, but you get the idea.
Thoughts on this anybody?

Mobstar

i would say a piece of black ABS plastic over those three holes would look best but whatever. anyways, for the OP, check out my sig for the Pic of painted lights
