    XR-underground has a full write up. You have to "bake" them in the oven, then pull them apart and paint the inside!!!!

    I think ebay sells a pair of already blacked out lights for around $150.

    No, they are the complete blacked out headlights. Not bad for around $150, but still a $5 can of paint is a deal!!!!

    It'll look good on your red one too. Would tie in with your bug deflector. Red, black and chrome will look sick.

    Ok, no, seriously. Do you guys think the BHM would look good on a red truck? I thought my headlights looked awesome as chrome because of the chrome grill...

    I think it would. It's something I'm considering. Finding the time is another matter.
