Silver Headlights?

I'm gonna paint my 1st gen halo projectors silver to match my car. Just curious if any one else with a silver cobalt painted their headlights and have pictures. Or even a possible photoshop picture of silver cobalt with painted silver headlights.

Update: Pictures Page 2 & 3

My chrome headlights are a little to flashy, and I don't like the black ones on silver cause it looks like the car has two black eyes lol. I'm just going for a more clean look and better flow with the car.

The silver doesn't match exactly, it's slightly darker, but I don't care. I love it.



Here's a before picture

They are peeling, you just can't see it in the picture You have to look close to tell that they are peeling though
