    Base color is almost finished on the headlight surrounds. I found a few pinholes that I had to sand out and touch up, waiting for the first coat on those areas to dry now then I'll hit them all over once more before moving my focus to the reflector bowls. These are before the sanding and touch-up work, pinholes above the turn signal on the right surround and the lower front edge of the main bowl on the left surround.

    Oh you can't do these for normal headlights? Guess it makes sense as you are covering the chrome part.

    You could do just the surround, but if you were to go through the trouble of removing and opening the lights, personally, I'd want to do more than just add a splash of paint.

    I think that Brenda and I are going XC skiing tomorrow but I expect to spend some time this weekend on reassembling them. I will definitely keep up on the pictures.

    Ballpark or best recollection on everything...
    $130 for the headlights
    $300 for the retrofit parts
    $50 for paint

    Plus my time. So it's not much cheaper to build a set than it is to buy them, but I got the experience and built exactly what I wanted, no compromises.

    For now I'm just gonna do the Ultimate Headlight Upgrade, then maybe down the line something like that. Looks awesome though, very jealous.
