I dont think you use a brush, probably a spray, otherwise you would get brush lines?

[ShoCk]

Yeah, might be really difficult to spray though due to overspraying the actual lenses...

Im sure you wouldn't be able to see brush lines any way due to the style of the original lamps ... the lense is all patterned and distorted and isn't clear.

[Mikester]

Yeah, your probably right there actually, im just a bit wearing of using a brush. What paint do you use?

[RiCHiE360]

Smalish paint brush jobbie and i just bought some Matt Black paint form motor world..

A steady hand and some black silicone to re seal them 

[Mikester]

As we speak im on the floor with a hair dryer tryin to sperate the lens from one of my old headlamps, so it dont matter if i break it.

ands it not cumin off, did you use a big screw driver to prise it off?

[RiCHiE360]

Take your time heatin it up.. then just use a wide flat head screwdriver, patience my friend!

yeah, the dog is more interested in the hair dryer than the head light! lol.

Easy with the screw driver too as the glass chips REALLY easily. Stripped all 3 sets I've had, infact I've still got the glass off one of them, so if you break one let me know!!

Don't pain't them black though, looks

If you have to phaff with ordinary lights just smoke the inside of the glass!

How do you smoke them? this is the effect i want, not painted.
