Do-It-Yourself Completed my DIY Black Headlight Mod...

Well I finally did it after some thinking of how it look on my Blue Streak, so I been holding off for a while and decided yesterday to go for it since I still job hunting and have time on my hands and it warmed up for a few days here without rain. I think it looks good on the Blue Streaks too but now I am thinking maybe time to also black out my billet overlay too, more to decide now. I also went with a matte black paint to give it a factory finsih look.

Oh and I like to thank all that posted information on this DIY to help along the way, it saves other TS members from re-learning how to do this the first time. I know it saved me some time.

So here some pics for the people here that enjoy them......

After paint prior to re-assembly:


Completed and waiting to be installed:


Back on the truck and looking good:

Yea, looks awesome! I just saw your other thread about you putting in the grill... I kinda think the black grill would now go better since you got the headlights blacked out...

Thanks all, I have to agree I think maybe its time to blackout the grill or maybe take it off and go back to stock. Ahhh so many choices

Looks good. Now replace that amber bulb with a silverstar bulb.

Yeah I am not a chrome person either and the mirrors are on my short list of things to take care of, now just got to have some time and money. Doing a little at a time.
