thats what i wanna do but i rather paint or tint the headlight cause i dont wanna deal with tape or glue

 

Never done it but my tip would be do it with decal vinyl. Cut your shape, color match with rattle can paint, heavily windex light with windex (ammonia free), apply decal. The windex keeps the adhesive from making a good bond until fully dried so you can easily position and or remove if you don't like it. Wash rinse repeat until you find the look you want.

 

yea i have a two sets of lights so yesterday i used plastidip to get a idea but it wasnt what i was looking for

 

Make some hand cut templates from a thin cardboard like cereal boxes and stuff like that so you can use masking tape to hold it in place on light

 

yea good idea tried to find a template online but that turned up nothing

 

Buy em, use em to mark your lights, paint your lights, sell the em. Or put painters tape on your light, and draw out what you think you will like. Remove tape and place on a piece of paper then cut it out. Use it as a template to make your marks on the lights.

 

yea that what im gonna do. can you guys post pics of the finished products to give me ideas

 

I think this link has some painted ones pictured.
