Blacking Out Headlights Help

Hello! New here!

Anybody in Houston, Texas know how to Black Out the Stock Headlights and install demon eyes in my FR-S?

Been loving the look and have always wanted it but, I'm really frightened of messing it up with the Disassembly and Painting..

Any help would be appreciated!

It's actually really easy to blackout the headlights. There's a DIY tab on the DIY page. Basically you take the headlights out, heat them for ~10 minutes @ 200 degrees, take the screws out, and then using a screw driver or whatever, pry it open why still hot. As for the demon eyes... idk... :s

If I were in Houston, I'd help... but that won't be till June/July.

Nah you won't. As long as you follow the instructions. But I'd advise against painting the reflector in the brights...
