Blacked out headlight for PG !!!
 

Sup guys,

I have gotten my headlights blacked out,

sorry for the low quality picture, it was raining outside and there was a sunset. I could have waited for better time to take picture,
but I wanted to show this to you guys.

:happydance::tup:

looks great! :tup: Did you use Andy's overlays?

no, its not an overlays.

The headlights were taken apart, and all the chrome parts were painted black.

LOL, does mine looks like an sticker overlay?

Looks awesome! I want...

Your Attachment 1710

vs

junoonx's overlay

Just for comparisons sake.

Yours look better but I'm assuming a lot more $$ involved?

that looks sick

wowwwwww...nice looking. matches the grill so nice. if u dont mind me asking...how much?

PM sent.

Yes, the damage to my bank account wasn't light, however, I guess you get what you pay for, No?
;)

i think those look better than overlays.

hot damn!

actually looks pretty good. Nice job.

Very Nice!!!! :tup:

When the painted ones appeared on the blue Z, I posted that I though they would look killer on PG and be a must mod for me. After seeing yours, it is confirmed a must have.

Have you thought of doing the rears? Only a little bit of chrome but it the price was right I would consider it as well. Then if a good looking Nissan emblem could be found the car would be chrome free leaving PG / aluminum.

Love the look and thanks for posting.

I never considered rear, but now you mentioned it, I might think about doing it..lol

I will post up better pictures soon, the pictures doesnt really hit you as hard as in real life. The car looks so much more aggresive and better in real life!!

On the way back after that mod, this guy in the traffic light told me he thought my car was Austin Martin!!, And I told him, "nah man, you cant compare this car to Austin Martin.....................my car is better " :tup:

You mean Aston Martin, right?;)

I am curious as to why you chose to paint the inner housing black versus color-match the body color?

I never liked same color of headlight housing to the body color. My plan is to black out the bottom fang area, and maybe black front hood, as long as I think it not overly done.

But, this is just my opinion.

looking good.. glad i saw this because i am taking apart my headlights this friday.. i had a few questions..

i noticed that you kept the rings stock silver color.. i also have PG and i was wondering if they match well because I was going to try to find a similar spray paint like Medium grey Metal like the one posted here. http://www.the370z.com/diy-section-d...fog-light.html

... what do yyou think?

Got it, thanks!

I think they match pretty good as is. However, If you want to match that to the body color, you can paint it PG.

Here is another picture of the front end...(sorry for crappy pictures, As you can see, I am not photographer, I am just an auditor..lol)

Awesome. Good work man. Very aggressive looking :D

Chris

did you do it yourself?

What temp. did you bake the headlights at? or heat gun?

plan on doing a DIY anytime soon?

thanks.

I have taken my car to the local store that specializes on tuning Z and G cars. Therefore, I don't know the technical details on the procedures...

I sent you a pm.

Check out 180custom they are working on mine right now and they have FAST turn arounds and are inexpensive!!!! Check them out on myG37 they are the creators of the IronMan Mod...

nice & clean job on the head lights.


was it hard to open it up??

that mod makes ur car look so much meaner. looks great! :tup:

i so want to do this just that the fear of moisture build up on the inside deters me.

it wont if its done right

how much did they charge you?

how much does that 180 place charge?

If it was done with care and quality job, there should be no moisture forming up inside.

So far, after many days of rainy days/humid days, no moisture for me...;)

Very nice! It's not as dramatic as I thought. I'm waiting to get some sort of satin black or smoked look.
