spraying front lights like GTi's

[flownerdia]

so eager to make my front headlights look like the gti ones, without paying the gti price obvs!

i know a few people on this forum have done so. just wanted to know how to

1. take off the headlights

2. open the headlights

3. spray it. does it need a primer? what type of paint etc.

sorry if any of those questions sound stupid, this is my first car and i have no experience in taking headlights out at all lol

there was a thread on this, i'm sure the guy who wrote the how to will post up for ya

My mate sprayed his mx5 lights black and to get the glass off he baked it in the oven to soften the glue!!

Re did this process to stick back. Apparently 2months later they are still holding up.
