blackhousing

just a thought. im working on a new set of headlights, and i dont have time or money to work on projectors.. so i was debating wether i wanted to blackout the corner lights also.. i already have the black housing on my car(which i didnt black out the corners), but i wanted your guy's opinions on wether to keep the corner light chrome or black it out as well. thanks in advance!

If you're talking about blacking out the top corners, I say do it, it would match your blackhousing well. I love how mine look

3 coats of smoke spray

Since i think he wants examples, mine shines right through, did you use paint or smoke spray?



But yeah, shosh if you're not sure about blacking them, I'd do amber they'd look hawt

Did you black out that piece yet? If not, I'd do the whole thing amber, if it's already black, leave it black
