Default Painted Headlights '04+?

I used the "Search" to no avail. Does anyone know of anyone who has already done this? Again, I'm wondering about the 2004 and up headlights. Thanks.

It's been done. Someone local did the '04 headlights and taillights. I think it's on a Silverstone. I think the pre '04 style look better (my opinion isn't biased or anything ).

Forgive me for asking, but why would you paint them? They are already dark gray/black.

Are you talking about body paint matching them?

Thanks, Bass.

I'm not sold on matching in my case. Since my car has much of it to be painted, I've toyed with many different scenarios: full color change, two color paint scheme, stay Sebring, etc. My wife and I have agreed on wheels. As of right now, they will be black with a polished lip. I believe leaving the headlights black would help tie the two together. If I go two-color scheme, it will be Sebring and a color just darker than Silverstone. If that were to happen, then they would definitely stay black... I think.

On the other hand, only a couple of folks would have it done.

Housings look great, Pete. What kind of exhaust is that?
