Does it make much difference the paint behind the lights? Cause it's just visible in the pics. Nice bonnet too !

I think they look soo much better. Do you mean is the black noticeable? From certain angles it just looks normal because of the stupid lines all through the lens butt from front on obviously it looks like this

How they used to look

Really noticeable if your like standing over the car.. But from a distance on the side you cant tell the difference except the indicators are dark. :D:D But yer 11ty times better than stock imo.

Like i said in the other post the indicators are all fogged up in those pics. Thats why they look patchy.

How did your chrome on the lights hold up when masking? I know when I did mine the chrome lifted in a few spots where I had masked.

i didnt mask up. i pulled the surround bit out and painted that then sanded down that thing in the middle and coloured it in with a paint pen.

Well a paint pen would certainly make less mess then spraying it. Does the finish look ok or does it look streaky?

Nope looks even. Doesnt really matter cause the lens distorts it anyway. But yer cause i sanded it 1st it didnt go all streaky. Look on the last page.

Nice car man, love the headlight mod, and those wheels suit it perfectly!

You should get some small fog lights on the front bar, they would look good i think.

What else have you got planned for it?

Looks awesome man, gotta love the look of a white e-series on dark wheels. EL XR front FTW :mrgreen:

What did it pull on the dyno?

Looks cool mate,
I love the black indicators/headlights.
I'd do it to my mont, but it wouldn't suit it for shiit.
Keep it up mate,
