So I'm planning to AE/retrofit my headlights
I really wanna AE my headlights and corners but I dunno how hot the temperature has to be in the oven and how long I leave them there. And also, what paint do I use?

I set mine at 200 degree and sit there, focusing all my attention on it. Headlights are expensive to melt
