Help! Blacking Out Headlights (Chicago)
Hello fellow board members, I was just wondering if anyone in the chicagoland area has blacked out their factory bi-xenons and are willing to lend a hand in helping me do mine. I'll be doing everything from heating to painting, but I've never done this to an expensive car before so I just wanted to have someone who has done this around just to say "Don't do that!" or "That's a bad idea.." lol I've seen probably every DIY thread there is on this, but am still a bit hesitant. Compensation would be beer and the satisfaction of knowing you helped a fellow member! 
Thanks in advance!

Talk to mikounj. He has done numerous Bixenon headlights. There really isnt much to it once you get your masking done properly. Make sure you give yourself a good 4-6 hours to be able to accomplish this. What materials are you looking to use? The C63 comes in a gunmetal color not black to my knowledge.
