Lucky!! I want a 99 or 00 si sedan soo bad!!

I heard that using BBQ paint or something like that is better for headlight painting because its made for things that get hot and cold repeatedly. Just an FYI.

You only paint the chrome pieces on the inside? They look so dark from the outside. Like blacked out taillights.

I kinda like the look of the black with red accent on the hawkeye. I'll talk to you about it at the next meet.

No, it's just the angle or bad light. I paint only the chrome housing inside.
