Talking nice...

That looks good! Did you do that or just find the pics?If you did it then just 1 more question...How?
It looks like something I might do to my black 5.
Your input would be appreciated as I have no sense of taste and may oneday wake up and go"my god I am soooo A ricer!!!"This cannot be allowed to happen.

Remember friends don't let friends drive junk!!

OOPS, I forgot to give credit where credit it due. It is off of Kiku's site. It is Mr. DAI's car and he has yet to tell them how he did it.

That does look slick! My bf did that to his black Focus wagon, and has been after me to do it. Hmmmm..... Just might now!

He probably just took apart the headlights, painted the chrome, and resealed the headlights. It's a nice effect and a pretty easy job. Although I can see it being quite time consuming.

i would tend to think by painting the reflector that light output will be diminished...

The MP3's are the same way and they have a good output of light. It still has the reflective part around the light bulb.

Paolo-do that to the focus! It looks nice. Subtle, but nice, kinda like the SVT. It is time consuming, but worth it. My boyfriend and I just have to figure out how to get these lenses off. The focus lenses were easier.

I dunno... I still like the chrome. In fact, I think even the MP3 looks better with the chrome P5 lights, or to a lesser extent the LX headlights. (Single bulb, like the sedans, but chrome, not black.)
