My stock headlights are really starting to annoy me, but I don't want to send them to Jnc since I'd rather just have everything done in one day and don't wanna deal with shipping.

Does anyone know someone/someplace that can do my headlights in or near LA? I don't want anything crazy done, just a simple blackout...preferably someone with experience since I rarely ever trust someone else to touch my car, but these headlights are not something I can do on my own.

Thanks socal aziners...

 

^just do it yourself. You would be surprise how easy it is and you have appreciate it more knowing you did it by yourself.

I would help you if I was sticking around Cali but I am moving at the end of the week. Couple people can vouch for the work I do.

 

^ i vouch

 

yeah it's scary at first, but once you do it, there's nothing to be afraid of... besides fucking up chrome or something I did it really carefully so it look a couple days. This is what I did...

 

Do you recommend using the oven method or hair dryer?

 

Hair Dryer are you being serious.

 

^ i am..

i've done it with a hair dryer.. and i've done like 15 lights. lol

 

Damn must be a good hair dryer.

 

I can vouch for Josh's method.

 

nope, just an ordinary hair dryer.

 

lol

few 99-01 TL headlights.. few 02-03 TL.. some 04-06 TL and 07-08 TL.. M45/35... face lifted Lexus LS430.. 7th Gen Accord... and yeaaa.... lol

 

^any condensation

 

ByRun was there...
















that is all.

 

nope.

only my first i worked on which was my own..
after that.. none.

 

here's the lexus... obviously before i worked on it.. can't seem to find the picture of after

 

Damn I am about to do some work on that lexus in a minute....

 

that lexus has like 1 cm clearance?

 

^ its on bags. and of course its not a DD.. just a show car

 

+1 for nikkita esco...sorry to make this thread off topic w/ the hair dryer..lol

 

wheres some pics of her headlights lol

 

^ill pm it to you ;p

 

^zomg me too phong

 

her face is w/e though


HAHHAHHAHAHAHA this thread went from someone trying to get headlights done to talking about the girl

 

If I successfully do mines next week, I will post it up and see what you guys think. Maybe I can offer my services. There's tons of DIYs on this site. Im going to follow that. The main thing is prying off the lights and then "properly" re-sealing it. I mean, that's the only difficult part that I can think of. Patience is probably the thing you need to have to get it done properly.

 

here is my work on 05

Had somebody ask me to work on their headlights. So i had it for three nights.

Results.

BEFORE



AFTER



black with silver pearls. Cleared amber. ZKW lens on projectors.

 

latex gloves! looking at mine you can see finger prints on the inside of one headlight and it bugs me knowing that its there :P

 

My bad I guess we should have cleaned the lenses before we put it back. Now I know and knowing is half the battle

 

lol its np, they still look sexy

 

I'm thinking about Black Housing my lights myself...kinda scared though...

i can vouch for Jjashaa's method...saw it with my own eyes...i was like WTF it wont work...10min later, he pulled apart the headlight with ease...LOL fux doing it in the oven, don't want all that chemicals in there. My method is using a heatgun...slightly faster than the blow dryer but if you don't pay attention, you might melt some parts

 

^ thanks man! haha

here's mine... stripped off silver stripe on the side.. painted NBP...
cleared out the amber and taped off the back housing portion so i can paint the sides and bottom/top.

 

Good shiz! Honda started doing color matched headlights w/ the honda fits lol...

 

serious..

and the new civics already come black/cleared...

dam them. lol

 

sooooo...does anybody still do this lol

 

what do you think will be a good color to paint the heads on an LGM?

 

I've blacked out several cars over the past couple years...Hit me up I live in Tustin and might be able to help you out

 

heyyy, how bout the labor ? fees? cause im interested lol

 

hmmm...Shoot me a pm and I'll figure something out! I'm guessing your in Diamond Bar?

 

lmaoo....

 

brushed aluminum.

lol.. idk.

just clear it.
