Default wondering will this work......

need some advice,

I want to paint the housing of my halos i have. its black now but i want it the color of my car (Laser Blue), afterwards i want to take back to anzio and have them seal it again with new lenses. I bought the lights used w/ HID kit.

Is this a loss cause? If so what other alternatives do I have? I know sealing is the factor here.

Thx!

You can do it. It's been done actually in white. Search the LS4 section of LS1tech.

ughhhhh

idk about that. i saw that guys car a while ago on cardomain, and thought it was one of the cleanest montes out there. his trunk setup is slick.


so back to the lenses. its a great idea, but it looks like he painted too much of it. i would tape off the rings b4 hand.

Ahhh I have been wondering about this guy! He was on the other Monte site very cool guy. Very innovative. Two beautiful Montes! Both have there custom touches that are amazing. So these headlights don't suprise me at all.

He said MY car, not your car, and I'm guessing because he's not sure how a red headlight would look. Honestly though, I think it would look kind of cool.
