Painted my headlights today and had wheels powder coated

I had my wheels powder coated in gloss black today, while I was stranded at home I decided to paint my headlight housing satin black...

That looks awesome! Nice job, I need to man up and do my headlights

TMAN1985 · 10-17-2011, 08:38 PM

Thanks! The headlights were pretty scary to do lol. But I had done them before or my motorcycle so I kind of knew how to do it.

The blacked out Amber reflector is money.

Now get to those Door Handles!

It seems like more guys are doing their headlights with much success and relative ease as compared to a lot who tried it on their 350s. Are these lights easier to do, or are you guys just 20 smarter? (370-350=20

)

Looks good BTW. I've contemplated having my wheels done. How much did you pay for the wheels if I might ask?

Thanks! I only paid $200, I got a good deal from a local guy....Not sure what the regular going rate is. The headlights did take awhile to do. It is nerving to put them in the oven, lol. But I am happy with the outcome.
