I have a guy to paint also. The problem is opening the housing and re-sealing it. Will he do that also?

If I ever get them, I will let you know. At this point it looks like I will complete this swap before I get those lights.

Pretty sure it's something just like this;

I used it on a hockey mask years ago and it looks the same as his headlights.

Could the code have been cracked???

LOL. if you always keep your headlights nice and polished, the rainbow colours will appear in the correct angles...but this spray on is much cooler.

The paint itself it very good, like I said, I used it before and was very happy with the results, subtle but noticable for sure. Other brands have a very fine metalic flake to them and they look like hell when painted on a clear surface, this stuff does not.

I decided not to go with red CF! Products I received are either too dark like burgundy or too glossy like the one I showed!
So I just can't find a good red vinyl and I'm going with black...

Good decision.

After a few years and quite a few 90mph hockey pucks to the head, no, it didn't It held up really, really well actually. Now, don't come back looking for new headlights from me if it doesn't work out for your application!

Haha I know where you live so make sure you have 700 handy lol

I'm not going to apply that spray until I find out if there is any product that can remove it!
Sanding will probably work but don't want to use that.

It's paint and you're going to use it on clear plastic, it's not going to come off to easily. My suggestion, buy a can, go to a scrap yard and buy a headlight off some POS, clean it and spray it - you'll know within 24 hours if you like it or not.

I suggest an actual headlight because you'll be dealing with pretty much (if not exactly) the same plastics.
