Default First Ever Painted and Smoked Headlights?

I've seen painted and naked, painted and cleared, and I've seen smoked, but I've never seen painted AND smoked!

I did this a couple of weeks ago to my car.

Am I the first?

Hey, pretty nice! I wonder if yellow would work just as nice. What kinda paint and stuff did you use?

hmmm... I really liked the idea of painting the headlights a matching color but for some reason it does not look right. It looks as if the housings are jutting out. Maybe it will work better with a different front end? Anyway, I hope I did not offend you with my observation and comments.

Hmmm I think I like it. I'm not sure though. It looks cool because you can seen the shape of the insides of the headlights better. from me.

No offense taken. Everyone likes a different flavor.

I like it. I'd bet they would look better if you took the pics on a bright sunny day !

Keep us updated on the long term effects of the heat Vs. the paint.
