cleared out my headlights
had some free time this long weekend...so i decided to clear out my headlights...man it looks sooo much better....
Headlights took about 2 hrs for each side, letting it dry overnight.....its an easy job, i was scared to try at first but the hardest part was first prying it apart (i used a heat gun), once you get a screwdriver in there, its a piece of cake...
I also had time to paint the "chrysler wing" on the grille black...3 coats of paint, 2 coats of clear....nevermind the stone chips....

yah its scary...but once you start make sure you dont keep the heat gun on at the same spot for too long...thats the only way you can fuk it up.

Nice going man. Car is lookin great. 
I just recently had my headlights cleared and like darrin said you should go and get some turn signal bulbs (1157) that look silver but blink amber. Would really complete the look. I got mine at Pep Boys. They're the APC brand ones.

i painted my friends headlights white instead of the usual black (he had a white car) and it actually looked really nice...ive always wanted to see what a blue car would look like with blue housings (kinda like the last generation TL a-spec)..but i dunno anybody that would let me to it lol
