Re: Color Matched Head Lights?

I had the entire outside edge of my headlights painted black to cover the ugly, uv-damaged silver trim, but I never tried to take the unit apart and do the inside. BTW, after I took these pics, I also used a sharpie to blacken the thin rubber trim that runs around the top & side of the unit.
