Sweeeeeet

Another vote NOT to smoke your headlights or taillights. Not only is it overdoing it, and illegal, it cuts down on night time visability...both ways. It just reduces safety.

Ahh........ You know how people black paint their housings... How about black chrome?

Black chrome the housings for:

Headlamps

Foglamps

Emblems

That would look original and sleek!

It sure would, but finding a company to do the Black Chrome isn't easy. When you do find them, they are expensive.

Very true. Expensive price tag. Also the risk of the housings leaking moisture as well. If it was in the affordable range, I would consider it.

I don't know where in the post that I have stated I wanted to black out my taillights or headlights, but I have no intention of doing so.

Me too, nice rare wheels for our cars, but time for a change.

You mean Crystal White that you have, or Glacier Frost.
