    The oven heats the entires housing consistently, VS the heat gun where you can only get 1 spot up to temp. By the time you work your way around it has already cooled.

    Looks awesome! Glad you left the chrome ring around the projector like the PRO light. When everything is blacked out,, just too much IMO

    I know of a guy that might do it, but keep in mind you'd have to ship it and you have to drop your whole front end to get them out.

    Ok I see. Thanks for the quick reply. Anyone know of someone in or around the Denver CO area who can help with the black housing headlight job?

    Is the Tuxedo Black the paint Ford uses in the trim of their headlights or is it used on the exterior/body of the vehicle?

    Looks good, do you have a link/source where you got the paint from?
