If I bring you the headlight to my hypermotard could you paint it black for me?

Is painting the chrome going to effect the output lighting?

Most likely - yes, but he doesn't really use high beam so it doesn't matters

Why must you live all the way in Sac!

I want to do this but I'm not sure it would look good on my stock WRB Hawkeye. I think I need a lip for it to look right.
