Pics needed of AE Headlight mod with corners blacked out

Wondering if anyone has done the AE mod and painted the corners as well. I'm thinking of doing this but want to see more pics before I proceed.

Thanks, great write up...I thought I had to paint it. I guess since I'm blacking out the corner all I have to do is paint that piece. I'll be using a high heat gloss for the corner so its still reflective. Seen it done on 4th gen corners and it looks amazing. It actually brings out the orange more.

If you want..you could rub the chrome off the corner reflector also. I've never seen one where people used a "high heat gloss" paint to paint the corner reflector. Make sure you post up ics when your done.
