Default Re: gonna spray tint the inside housing of headlight

i dont know about spraying tint but i spray painted the chrome on the inside of the housing black. not the chrome piece that surrounds the actual bulb, but the piece that lines inside wall of the housing. it came out cool. the headlight now actually looks similar to the shade of the TT. if ur gonna use spray paint, use high temperature spray paint, preferably the spray paint used on calipers and engine parts.

Default Nope, I moved to Finland in Jan07, The rain has been bad here too but...

It doesn't flood the lakes like it does a river.
My house in the UK is safe, up a large hill ;0)
But my grandmother lives next to a large river and her cellar (basement) has been flooded again, 10" of it!
