My new black housings

Sorry S500Man, I had to bite your style a bit.

Thanks to Juno (mikonuj) for the work. He has a heat gun and did the work in a few hours. He also installed my clear side markers for me.

Pardon the car, its a bit dirty.

Dang. Nice, Rabbi.

Makes the car look brand new. I really wasn't feelin the chrome.

@Rabbi: Did yours come with white/gray grill mesh? I want to replace my grill but the whole thing is grey... I'd have to find a way to replace the bottom as well.
