Different Headlight Designs
 
3 Attachment(s)
I'm sure most of you remember that a while back I took my headlights apart and painted the inside black (kind of like the depo lights). While they were apart, I was toying with the idea of putting a decal or something on the side--BUT decided against it. The idea was to cover a part of the chrome so that after paint, i could peel it back off and there would be a chrome accent on the black insert, all being inside the headlight housing. Well, I'm doing my second set (the set that was originally on my car) and wanted some opinions on whether it would be a good idea, or to just leave it black. The reason i'd leave it black is because i'm afraid that i'm getting WAY too many bowties/SS's on the car and it's gonna look overdone. Here's a couple pictures i mocked up to give you an idea of what it'd look like.

Thanks alot man! that looks great. The more I'm thinking about it, i may end up having one set with gloss black and the other with flat black. mostly just to compare the two.
