I finished my black housings this past weekend, came out nice. I used masking tape, hi temp flat black paint and once the headlight was back together, just to be safe, I ran a bead of silicone around the seam. My stanley jdm corners will be here tomorrow:yay: Im gonna put them on as soon as I get my car out of the bodyshop, for those who don't know, my car is getting the body massaged and painted the color of the car in my sig Should be ready by Friday.

When I installed my Halo Projectors I managed getting the stocks out and the Halos in without taking off my bumper some how lol... I wonder how I did that, it was just random pulling and what not... I bet I couldn't do it again.

eh he. once in a lifetime. good luck bro. Now i'm kinda regretting doing it my my car, it looks nice when my car's luminair black, now planning to paint it light color, it'll stick out like Pain in the A**. I want to Redo the headlight with the car's new color, Don't know if it's illegal. My car new color WILL be Platinum Silver based with Blue Pearl 2 Color Tone Top. Dang......Those look hella nice..........but them paints are toooooo Xpensive.

To remove the whole bumper support along with the bumper cover; there is 1 screw in each fenderwell. 2 bolts behind each bumper light. That's all I can remember. Maybe a bolt or two under the car. For just removing the bumper cover, which seems easier; Just have the 2 screws in the fender well, 5 clips under the grill, 1 under each corner light, and 2 under the car.

Here is a tip for you, after you are done use the Novus 3 stage plastic polish system, i just did it to my headlights tonight and wow did it make a big difference. My lenses were a little hazed from the age of them, but this made them look like new. I was going to but new headlights because of how the looked but i just saved myself a few hundred dollars.
