Front Headlight Mods

I was just wondering whether anyone has made modifications to the front headlight housing on their 86/BRZ?

i'm looking to get a black internal light housing for mine just to make the front of it look darker.

any ideas?

There's a notorious one on these forums. However, I won't bring up the details. I will say that it is Sharpie related.

There are plenty of threads about disassembling and painting frs headlights. The brz headlights are a bit different and have less chrome.

I think he just pulled the headlight assembly apart and painted them.

I think I am getting old and crotchety. Every day we get something similar from a user who with less than 10 posts who clearly didn't use the search function.



"Has anyone done *insert well covered topic*?"

Nope, despite this forums lengthy existence, and despite the car being released for over a year now, no one has thought about the *well covered topic* yet. You're the first.



I'm going to go watch reruns of Cheers now.
