Oh sorry I thought you meant the S. I dont actually know the name of the color, it had a number in the house of color paint book. I was looking for an almost midnight blue with a light metallic flake. It was pretty nice.

thanks man.
i have some headlights opened up right now doing my retrofit, but i'm at a sort of an impasse.. i fucked up part of the chrome bowl inside one headlight, which i had wanted to leave chrome... so i don't know what to do about that..
and i'm having a really hard time finding some sort of shroud for the wide part of the tsx projector.
i had some custom made shrouds all ready, and when the time came to stick em in there, i realized they are just barely too small and would also have to be painted, and I didn't want to paint them black...
so i'm stuck right now..
it's looking like i may have to black out the reflector bowl, but i hope it doesn't come to that
i've been back and forth on the blackhousings... we'll see how it all ends up

dude, I used crossfire bezels, cut them down a bit, but they completely hide the wide TSX center, course I painted mine black so I dunno, g'luck with the retro if you need more help or ideas, pm me.

so i've got part of my problem figured out.
now all i need to find is something that is smooth, somewhat sturdy, bendable, and can be cut. i had something i thought i might use, but it's not quite sturdy enough. i may be able to reinforce it, but i'd rather find something i feel more confident about.
any ideas of material or objects?
i still have a few rolling around in my head i might try out.
if i can get this figured out soon, expect my retro to be done by the end of next week
