I saw painted grille on WDP and it looked tight, should look good on SSM too. Wuz just thinking about buying those blacked out headlights myself vs going through the work/risk of clearing yellow from OEM headlights.

NO no NO no... don't black out your headlights on a light coloured (colored) car... it gives the car the eyeball look and in my opinion, looks like you've riced up the TL a little bit..

Am I talking out my ass or from experience?
I origionally cleared and blacked out my headlights for my 1st TL...



After seeing what it looked like, I was glad I was able to swap headlights with Tatewaki, he had clear headlights on a black TL. After the swap, the blacked out lights lookamazing on the black TL and the cleared (not blacked out) ones look better on the lighter colours..

If you can't see the pics just post that and I'll try to fix them...

long story short.. clear them for light cars and if you want black them out for the black ones.
