I have seen a few members paint them black. It looks very clean on white tCs. Not as good on MGM unfortunately.
KidJustin did his.

Taking them apart seems like a pain but they turned out really good. I might have to try it now. Thanks for posting that thread man!

I opened my headlights about 8 times. The tricky part is closing them back the correct way.
