Black headlights

They can either be stock ones that are painted black or projectors that you are selling, BUT they have to be legal. Otherwise, i will not buy. PM me if intrested in selling. Pictures will be appreciated. Thanks

is it tough to paint the stockers? i was thinkin about doin it..and i saw the how to guide on it..but it seems like putting them back together after painting might be a pain..

well when i did mine i used black polyurethane sealant from home depot and filled that little grove the lens sits in and then slapped it together and it hasn't leaked or fogged.
the only down side is that it took 2 days for it to dry

not a bad idea.. yeah the whole taking the housing apart and sanding it down then painting it doesnt seem rough.. just the getting it back together correctly without leaks...did u cake the **** out of it to make sure it didnt leak or fog?

all i did was scrape all the white sealant out and then filled the grove completely with new stuff and let dry. when i pushed the lens into the sealant i made sure that some squished out all around the light to ensure a good seal
