How-to make AE headlights

i think the AE headlights are sick and i don't want to go out and by a set. I see people with "custom" AE headlights. Does anyone know how to make them?

You got to heat them up in the oven for about 15 minutes, then pull the front lens off, this takes a little time. When you get them apart you scuff up the part of the chrome you want to paint with fine grit sandpaper. Tape off the parts that you don't want to paint. Prime them and then spray them with some gloss black. To put put them back together just reheat them then squeez them back together.

If you want I have a pair brand new in the boxes I'll sell for 215.00 shipped.
