Ok guys, I am looking for headlights, some nice black tinted type. Ones that look aggressive. I am looking to get something that will look nice at night and during the day. I had the black headlight covers in the past, but i'd like something that is not temporary. Any suggestions as to who to talk to about getting? Or who has a really cool pair, that I could copy or ask to make me some? Let me know please.

why dont you just clear corners/paint bezels and do it how you want?

I know how to remove the headlight, what next? I don't want to mess anything up. I saw someone on here at one point with a black car, that had his done. He had some trible symbol on his lights or something. I am not saying i want one but i liked the look of his lights, any idea who he was?

James aka Skiboarder_311 i think his screen name was...he hasnt been around for a long time...
just check the clear corners how to thread, cuz once you've got the headlights apart, you can do basically what you'd want to the bezels :)

Do you think I could use night shade on them, not the whole headlight, just parts?

i dunno if i'd actually wanna tint the lens tho...that'd be kinda screwy for night time drivin, and on a white car, my personal opinion would be to have a lighter lookin color...or just a plain clear corner

I was thinking of a light coat, like clear corner the lights then putting a light coat of night shade on them.

as long as its not too dark, it could look alrite i guess...or do the clear corners for now, and see how you like it...it doesnt take long to take the headlights apart if you were to change it afterwards

i dont think they have it... i think you have to get it online... if you want that look sorta here's an idea... take you headlight apart... paint the bezels black and then use the nightshades on the orange corner lenses... and then put the lenses back in the bezels... i dont think i've ever seen that done before...

I am thinking of panting the benzel black metallic. Then taking night shade and doing a light coat. To give it a slight tinted look. Then putting a darker coat over the reflector and turn signals.

That is exactly how mine looked. I don't think you need to really tint the lenses. The black bezel should make it plenty dark for you.

You have to be a complete idiot to mess somthing up when you take apart the headlights. Its like 3 peices and the lense. Take out the yellow corner and toss it. I also think all clear will look the best on your white alero. Take a look at aftermaths, atm his is white with clear.
