i'll probably let it dry overnight to be safe cuz i can't afford to fuck up a headlight then pay for a new pair

with any type of painting, it's good to let it dry overnight. ESPECIALLY with high temp applications like headlights

You dont need a high temp paint. You can use a metalic spray paint which looks much better. I used black metalic with silver sparkle. Sand @ 400 grid. Make sure you sand the edge on the back so when you pain you pain sanded area on the back as well. This doesn't allow pain to chip and flake. Prime once. Sand with 1200 grid. Prime for a second and a third. Allow 30 minutes between each application. Pain with desired color. 3 applications would be nice. 30 minutes between each application. 2 coats of clearcoat. 45 minutes between each application. let dry overnight. One warning along the whole way. DO NOT TOUCH PRIMER/PAIN/CLEARCOAT TO MAKE SURE IT IS DRY. YOU WILL LEAVE FINGER MARKS.

i would love to do this with cyclone blue to my headlights. maybe sometime down the road I will...

In my opinion you shouldn't get your healights painter the same color as your car. I think you should go with the same color tone but much darker in contract. I think that would look unique and very nice.
