With a name like "Photochop"

I dont think that word means what you think it means lol

Lol, the way you did it makes it look like a vinyl overlay. And matching color headlights only works on red.

hahaha, coz I saw some other vehicle have it,
too bad I don't know how to use painting software T_T

Darren did the BHLM but I'm sure some memberswill colormatch it instead. Personally, I think it'll look ricey.

ye, I saw his mods in the asphalt, looks nice

Color-match the chrome piece inside the headlight might not be bad. Color-matching by tinting the whole headlight.. uhh, no.

Black is better. Just did this to our damaged R-Q headlight

I like the black

+1 to black, I HATE chrome will be one of my first mods if I can find someone to do it properly.

I think the ultramarine looks good with the stock chrome/silver pieces. If anything I'd go with black housing or lights like the BRZ
