Could somebody please photoshop a pic of a projector black? I have mine apart, doing the lhd conversion, and was thinking of painting the inside black, to match the rest of the car. I would like various chops of the chrome pieces done to see how they would look. Both highs and lows if you could.

I have pics if you need them, but there are plenty floating around the site.

I was nervous as sh!t to open them, but now that they are open I am thinking of doing something to them, just to be unique.

But yea, after thinking about it for the past few days I dont think it would be such a good idea after all. In both the highs and lows, the chrome would act as a reflector, reflecting the light from the back/sides of the projector housing onto the road. Painting it black would absorb the light, making the lights useless.

Atleast in one of my friends tiburon it didnt make any difference and he painted them all black.
