no shop wanted to bake and open them, so they wanted 125 just to paint both housings. i'd have to do the hard part.

Here on S2ki. Its the only AP2 Ive seen with painted headlight housings. Makes the car look completely different/newer. I love it.

I am interested to see how it will look on SSM since the ring around the project is closer to SSM than Sebring. I saw someone custom paint the rings in the tail lights and the project rings Rio and Jesus it was aweful....

Im kind of intimidated by the whole baking my headlights thing... I really want to do it but I dont want it to be more trouble than its worth.

it can be VERY difficult. beware. you can seriously destroy the headlights if done wrong. i wish you were local in order to help you out. try to find someone who has experience.

CAN someone please photoshop the headlights on the SSM body color?
