I'd leave the LEDs to the Porsche and Audi Group. Nice black paint though

I love LEDs, I don't care who started the trend. I'm going to try this when I do an HID setup in my gsr. What paint did you use for the housing? I'm just worried about peeling.

Here is the best pic I have. My camera is not that great at night.

I used Dupli Color flat black automotive paint. I have seen others recently using plastidip that looked pretty good. Peeling is a concern, but all you need to do is do some light sanding to prep the plastic. But from what I hear the plastidip works fine without sanding.
