Decided to do the chrome part inside the headlights in Matt black
Changed the stainless wire mesh grill to a standard black mesh one
Removed sti stickers on fog covers

Makes it look a little smarter I think?

It's fairly easy the first time their split as the glue melts....I used black silicone sealant putting them back together the first time tho so it was a bit more difficult to split this time, nothing some help with a screwdriver and a stanly knife can't fix tho lol
The worst part is being brave enough to put them in the oven

My mate turned up with new lights in his black blob eye, not naming anybody (TOWSER) when i asked why the change apparently he left his old ones to long in the oven
