i sprayed the inside of one of my stock headlights, that was messed up...but it didn't turn out well...i'm reluctant to do that to my 800 dollar headlights right now..i will when they get older and lose some of their rarety and value.

Ok, firs fing is what you take a really huge pot and put the water in it. After that, boil the water and put your headlight in it. Boil it for about 20 - 25 min, make sure that the whole glass of your headlight would be in water. After 25 min. of boiling (you have a great soup that is called "celi lamp soup" biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif ) take of your headlamp and use a flat screwdriver to open the headlight. Do it really carfuly cuz you may break glass.
But i say that you waited a little bit, and i will put a how-to with the photos and write-up.

And about painting, it would look realy cool on the black car (if you painted with black color your lamp inside) , but on the silver i dont know...

This should be in the How-to section.

i just used a gun metal wheel paint. if i were using the headlight though, i would go find a high-temp paint that would be more suitable.
