Black Housing Headlights for Evo X...or 8/9

If anyone ever needs their headlights done just let me know. Give me a call or text at 2543686951. I can do them anyway you like with more of an OEM look or just all black. Just did both of my X's this past weekend.

I really want to do mine as my dust cover did not fit well one time and it collects lots of dust inside. Hard to clean it. I'm just scared to oven in. PM me how much.

I'm not all too worried about price right now. If you want it done, we can make it happen. I don't have a set price or anything, I figure whatever someone can afford is enough for me.

Looks like you did a great job! Did you use high temp paint and also do prep with sanding or did you use plastidip?

No sanding is needed, I found that out a few years ago the first time I did this mod. The primer paint used adheres perfectly to the headlight housing surface and yes, it is high temp.

Also, not one headlight I have done has had a problem with leaking or fogging.

Thanks! If I try this mod I will follow your advice and only use primer and then the black paint after. I'm not that good at sanding, hahaha.
