After seperating the glass with a help of heatgun,I used Motip Matt Black heat resistant spray paint.

After 15 minutes of painting process,I closed the headlights,put the grill in to it's place and here are the result.

Hope you like it too.
Have a nice weekend.

Re: Painted the headlights and front grill to matt black. (xenophobic)

That looks great. I have been wanting to pull that amber part out of the blinker area. I am afraid that the glue job will not hold over time. Super work! Rick

What type of silicone did you use? The factory ones? If only, you were in LA, I'd have you do mine!

Of course I would do yours if we would be locating near.

The silicone is the same one called"Glass Silicione"in here
