DJ,

The lights look good.

Did you paint the insides of the fog light also or just the main beam?

This is on my short list of mods.

Nice! I griped a while ago about how the turn signal portion of the litronics is too dark compared to the rest of the light. Darkening the rest of the light to black is the exact opposite of what i wanted, but it makes the whole thing uniform and I think it looks great! Awesome idea for darker cars.

Gary, once you open the lights its all held in there together with a few screws, and once you tart unscrewing thigs around you can paint as much as you want, its pretty much just there to hide what is underneath, all the reflective stuff is left in the housing once you remove the main part. and then there are these gunmetal pieces underneath, as the part tht you will paint is clear/seetrough
