My Custom Headlights =)
I don't know why, but lately the headlights have been bothering me a lot lately, I couldn't stand the orange anymore hehe, ..............sooo I went ahead and did this..

And here it is on the car:
![](http://img26.exs.cx/img26/6071/123_2312.jpg)
I didn't have the whole day to work on it, so I only got one headlight done, i'll do the other headlight when I get some more time. I don't have the extra $$$ to throw on Euro headlights, so I figured i'd make my own custom ones![Smile](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
So what you guys think?
All comments are appreciated

I tried smoking out the reflector too:

And personally, I liked it this way better, but the light didn't really show through, so I decided to take it out.

very, very nice job. looks wonderul, although I myself like the orange. On PWP at least, it adds aggression when the car is viewed from the side.

Thanks for the compliments guys ![Smile](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Jate: for paint, i didn't even use "tinting" paint. I just used high-temp low-gloss black spray paint and used it for the reflector and the housing. It's all I had lying around hehe.
What paint did you use?

That looks hot!!!
. I personally like the way that looks better than jate and bdi's mod (no offense) Reminds me of the aftermarket projectors for the 4th and 5th gen Accords.
