Re: Why do I see...
Well, I was getting way too much moisture trapped inside and it wouldnt go away. There simply wassnt enough black goo to fill the cracks. Im hoping they are totally sealed now *fingers crossed*. All you have to do in order to remove the headlights is take off the wheels, fenderliners, top engine covers, brackets, and remove the bumper. I can do it lightning fast now (its like my 6th time doing it). Painting in 1 day can be done...but I would recomend against it...let them dry overnight. I decided I like the more classy look of black headlights...painted is too busy for me. And I came soooo close to painting them. Wait until you see my engine bay...its got some new bling bling toys in it that no one has....

That's funny.... my car was in a show this weekend... so I was asking the
guys from the stereo shop what they though of painting them... and they DID not like it. Maybe clearcoated though. I don't know if you saw the chromed plastic ones.. but they don't look bad either.
