I am thinking of doing it to my car when I have the time, may also have the grill painted gloss black.

Crazy Bimmer

doooooooo eeeeeeeeet. Looks good.

Looks nice!

SSMTL01

much better than stock

iTimmy

The headlights are out of the car, taking apart assemblies in a few minutes and painting

srika

looks a lot better than stock!

if you remember, similar thing happened on the 97-98 Supras from the factory (chrome housing to dark grey) - and that looked hot too.

wow.... nice....

are you doing it right now??

Good luck with it and put up the picture right away!!

iTimmy

but it was easier then I expected.

One is done and back in the car, the other is waiting to be taken apart and painted. I also decided to do the grill the same color, while leaving the emblem chrome.

The grill was chipping anyways and dealerships seem to be dickbags about fixing it, so this should take care of it. After the bumper was off it was only 5 more buts to remove the grill so I felt obligated to take care of it right now.

I broke my digital camera a few months ago and haven't got around to getting a new one so it will probably take me a few days to get pictures up... so far it looks really mean, I like it!

The first pics look sweet.

Put up the pics ASAP Tireguy,......sounds like your car will look awesome when you are finished.

iTimmy

Its done and damn the G looks mean now! I'll get pics up ASAP!!

Ya looks good, 4 hours seems pretty quick to do that. I didn't really read what was all involved tho

Looks nice... did you have to bake the headlights?

iTimmy

I used a heat gun to open and reseal them

Wow, that is a big improvement. Ive always been hesitiant about baking or heating up the lights. Let us know if there is any condensation in the light after it rains

I always worry about resealing headlight housings with HIDs. A little moisture could cause ballasts to blow ... expensive replacement. Bought an extra set of cleared headlight housings from a Toronto AZ member way back when ... sold it because they leaked on me twice on my feeble attempts to reseal them.

Looked great at the time but I won't be doing that again (once bit ... twice shy).

Post pics already, tireguy! Don't be so cheap and buy yourself a digital camera. I realize you pride yourself on that but there is a point where you have to draw the line!

The links aren't showing up as pictures for me, so I hate to be a pain in the ass, but here are the individual links, any help fixing my links is most appreciated

I like those headlights, but I think clear lens > dark lens.

Everything on the grill that is black was chrome and the same goes for the headlights.

wow, awesome job my man!! The grille was a nice touch as well..I'm a huge fan of blacked out grilles. Didn't wanna black out the emblem eh? Either way, it looks fantastic.
