Great looking car!

Thanks,
For the Mercedes especially, it is a pretty tedious process.

You remove the headlights and bake them so the adhesive between the lens and actual housing becomes warm enough to separate.

Then you must dissemble the entire headlight, and go through the entire paint process. And lastly bake once more to put the lens and housing back together.


Definitely not a weekend DIY project. Have a professional do the work
