i thought about that, but i dipped my 19 in chrome and that cost me by both arms and legs LOL and im very short on money.... I totally agree with u, i wanted to smoke em but the set was like almost $400 each side..
do u know if i can smoke em while keeping the original one?

my next thing is magnaflow muffler, remove my resonator and high flow cats.(same time)
i still want my lambo door and smoking my headlamps and lip on the trunk.
but one thing at a time especially with me(financially)..

do u have a pic of it on your car??? if so, would u please post it for me..!!

Yes you can smoke the oE headlamps, thats what I did!
I dislike the eBay FishEye cheese-grater, angle-eyes chrome headlamps

Mine were turning yellowish,so I wanted to smoke em just a lil'bit.
I first tried the Lamin-X precut material, but found that they did not completely cover the entire lamp.
So I decided to Smoke them myself.
I sanded with 2000 grit, then polish and compond
to smoke i used 9 parts clear, 1 part black paint
I sprayed them with 3 coats..all while on the car masking Everything!

its sprayed-on really heavy, but the Factory HIDs work perfect at night.


currently, the side markers are now painted
Daytime with 10k HID bulbs on:

This is when I first sprayed them Stock HID:

on the old Chrome 19" AMGs:


CHeers my friend!

KEEP HER SHINING!
