You could always buy the chrome ones, remove the lenses, spray the bits you want black, stick back together like bricey did with his standard ones..

Yeah I've joey modded a few sets of MK3 headlights, I'm just a bit reluctant to try & split a set of brand new £100+ lights, I've read some horror stories about trying to get them apart :undecided:

Ok, had 2 replies from them:

1. "hi, the inner surround,
br paul"

2. "The main beam reflector is chrome. and there is a ring around the projector lens that is chrome. The rest is black. difficult to tell from the photo. Looks more chrome when there is.
James"

I'm assuming that this means that they are in fact black like GunnerCP said and it's a very poor photo :smiley:
