I have seen a few cars here with the headlight "bezel" painted black, or even teal like kwhauck's old car. I was just wondering if anyone here (probably with a red car) has expirimented with using red here instead of the black or original chrome?

if you go to autozone they have paint that matches the collor of your car, i personaly think that would look better than painting it just some random color of red but it only comes in the smaller spray cans. but what do i know im just the fat kid, nobdy listens to the fat kid :wave:

im a firm believer that the bezels look better painted to match the color of your car depending on the color though.

red is one of those colors i think red bezels on a red car look good. same with black on black blue on blue and ummm thats prlly it. the rest should jsut clear there corners and leave the bezels chrome.

I find that it varies from car to car not to many pull it off to where I think it looks good, but I'm pretty picky

:huh: From that picture above, I'd rather go with black. But his car doesn't even look the same shade of red as mine in that picture. Maybe its just the picture, but I think that looks creepy.

Yeah Sweet, I think you're right, I should just buy some color match paint and do it that way. The worst that could happen (assuming i don't screw up) is that I end up not liking the red and paint them black anyway.

Wow. Rude doesn't even begin to explain that.

And yes, I realize that for the 10 minutes I had that picture up that it was way to big when I first saw it, which by the way was also when I read your interesting (for lack of a family oriented word) comment.

Maybe next time you could be a bit less of an ignorant ass.

Eh, there are some members on here who are very blunt about their feelings (Sound is one of them) but that's just who he is and you kind of get used to it, don't worry too much about it he don't mean no offense (well, at least not as much as comes across :P )

And my Grandpa drives a Z06, but he's still old and wrinkly :P

p.s. My Grandpa actually drives a Camry :cry:

Oh, and back to the subject... I think I'm just going to paint them red and if I don't like it I'll change them to black. Has anyone ever tried any of that carbonfiber vinyl material? It looks kinda cheezy, but I was just wondering.

no do not do the carbon fiber vinyl junk.

your plan is good........ go with red and if you dont like it you can always paint them black. i think youll like the red though
