show off the painted headlights

wasn't sure if anyone had tried this, but i painted the reflector housing for the driving lights and blinker lights. everything shows up fine and i like the look a little better. here are some pics.







the reason that you can't see the blinker bulb is because i wired it to where it only lights up when used as a blinker and not driving lights. i am getting some other bulbs for the driving lights, but i just got them and installed the lights last night. let me know what you think.

I left my blinker clear and put in a chrome amber bulb to match the 2 round reflectors. Nice to see something new though. I like it alot.

I did something similar, i just didnt put the reflector back in the blinker or driving light, so it gives the same effect
