I chose those headlights because I didnt want the orange/yellow reflectors that most come with. But sometimes I wanna go back to stock.

it was an expirement i plan to paint everything flint mica in the near future. the waterfall, the gauge cluster and the vents on the dash.

i had a whole bunch of other things painted blue but nobody seemed to like it so i put most of it back ot black other than the center. but it will be flint mica before next spring.
