I like that very much is it the same colour as your car? i was wondering if this could be done to mk4 style lights. did you prime? or just paint.

How did you get the glass cover off the lights as Ive tried on my previous car and cracked the glass, someone once said something about heating the edge up, is this true?

P.s they look spot on mate  :laugh:
