    I applied about four coats of paint. First, I used a metallic gray body shop paint (Plasti-kote) for a base. Then I applied a enamel Black, then a clear spary coat, then another layer of the black. I had to go to Pep Boys (god dammit, I know it was a last resort) to get the Plasti-Kote paint. Just a reminder to all-you can NEVER have too much spray paint. I actually finished one headlight in Duplicolor metallic Gray, but then ran out and I couldn't find another can, so I switched to PlastiKote. Always buy at least TWO cans of paint per color. ALSO!!!!Remember to reseal the headlights, that way you don't get any condensation. I sealed mine, and even after a heavy rain and high humidity-no condensation.

    I'll have better pics up later, but now I gots to work. :D

    I want to see someone body color match the headlights! I'm not sure if that's a great idea, or bad idea.
