How long does this process take? I would consider driving all the way down to Baltimore just to get this done for free and learn a few things about the car (never took off a bumper before).

i agree.. it took me about 6 hours, and i installed the retrofit and halos, but i had a perfect sun and my paint dried way faster then i thought it would.. it was still a little softer then what id have liked.. but i was just really careful around the bezel..

since F-R-S has done this already, the chance on cracking or breaking the headlights i would think is very rare.. im sure it needs to be said that he is not responsible of the off chance it does happen.. but this is pretty straight forward procedure.. retrofiting projectors in housings have been happening for many years.. i personally think this is a great service to the community that can take advantage of it

Perfect time to do it with no humidity

@F-R-S Hey dude I just want to comment on your frs, it looks amazing. I just recently bought a whiteout frs myself and I am considering on doing the black out lights but scared to f' it up. However I noticed you're not too far away and might take you up on the offer. I'm quite nervous about the whole thing but you seem legit. I'll even tip you as my way of thanking you for helping me out and the community. Much respect for the service you are providing.

Those are the exact words I was hoping to hear. I'll hit you up when I am ready. Out of curiosity, the paint you use for the headlamps, can that be applied on the Toyota emblems too? I just ordered a pair.. your car is my inspiration, haha.

Which brand of black paint should I get for the emblems?

_F-R-S_ · 11-27-2012, 06:37 PM

Yea i painted the back emblems with paint matte black from walmart then Clear coat nail polish lol its holding up for 3 months now. And the headlights the same spray paint dont know the exact make
