Default MontBlue painted headlights? Anybody?

I'm trying to decide which way I want to modify my headlights. I'm looking to see pictures of anybody that have color matched their headlights to the mont blue. I know one of the companies that do headlight mods were selling the interior piece painted blue, but I never saw who purchased it and the after install pics.

I just don't want to black them out. I want something that contrasts better with the paint and my 20" Axis Shines. I was thinking either color match to the blue or just a good smoke to the lens. I just despise the chrome.

If anybody has some shots of the inside of the headlight in blue, pass them along if you will. Thanks.

I'd suggest black housings with blue projector shrouds, I've done a set like that and they looked great!


2theExtreme has his that way with black wheels.

Yep. Seen his a few times. They contrast very well with his black wheels.

But this is mine, and I'm thinking blue housing and black or graphite projector lenses.
