Baked headlights on my whiteout (EDIT-more pics)
So i finally decided to bake my headlights last saturday. i took my time so it basically took me all day. So many ideas on how to tape off the housing b4 paint.. but i like how it turned out.
(i didnt want to just black out the entire housing because the appearance woulda been too far from a "oem look") Special thanks to DarrenDriven for his accurate oven settings. His DIY is found here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8788 For a video of the headlights see: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbYrKdGhrJc&feature=share&list=UUBfgcdRcL1 elSv_4wrWuM7A"]White FR-S modified headlights - YouTube[/ame]

A pic similar in angle to the second pic. The ones of the lights installed have a little glare and its hard to see what you did.

Looks much better, an alternative to people who don't want the JDM DRL headlights.

You should definitely be hella grateful you don't need a front plate!
Looks great otherwise, would love a shot where the sun is in the front and you can really see some of the work.
