It looks like they're taking out the orange reflectors in the headlights. Is that a hairdryer?

thats a heat gun in the pic. the orange reflector is still there. we tinted them so they still light up orange at night.

Cool. I saw a friend of mine do the headlights on his Lancer. He put the the entire assembly in the oven to soften the caulk. It was pretty ghetto, but it worked.

im sorry i dont get it, what's the big deal? so the sides of your lights arent orange anymore... why would that bother you enough to want to change it?
why cant people just buy, and drive the car and be happy with it? why do cars have to be some quest for independence? especially lights! they are just lights and reflectors, are you going to make them hyper flash next? will they change colors?
i thought this was going to be a thread about stolen parts or somthing.

Don't worry about him... It's your car do what you want. BTW I think it looks great. The silver tint works well.

I think it looks AMAZING!

But it seems like taking everything apart just to make that light looks dark it's like using a Rocket Launcher to kill a Bee.

But then it looks fantastic! I want that too but then taking my car apart like that just for this seems a bit.....:'(

But I think you are well deserved to have that handsome smile on your face!!

doesn't your username imply that you are not satisfied with stock stereo systems? why can't you just be happy with the bass the way that it is?
