Stock foglights - ugly reflectors. Any ideas?
I just picked up the factory foglight kit. I noticed that they only have a very small chromed reflector right by the bulb. Rest of the interior of those foglights is just bare dull-gray cast metal.
It will really clash with those nice chromey headlights! Why didn't Toyota chrome the whole reflector?! Duh!
I've read here that JDM foglights have full chromed reflectors - but that is not an option for me now.
Has anybody tried to take the lenses off the foglights? Looks like the lens is glued in and there are also 2 screws on the ends. I don't want to crack them.
I'm thinking that if I can take them apart, I can paint the dull parts with some chrome silver spray paint.
I've searched the old posts here but I didn't find any good info. Any ideas or hints will be welcome.
Thanks!

Thanks for your input. I don't think I could have taken them apart. Lens seems to be glued in with some sort of RTV rubber. I seriously thing that the lens would have melted before the rubber wold have let go.
But I did find a way to return them. And I just placed an order for those JDM lights from Carson Toyota Scion! :D
