painted headlights, any silver painted ones?

any silver HHR's with silver painted headlight housings?

i want to do mine soon, hate the chrome like most of you do as well

however, instead of going with a matte/flat black, im thinking of doing a silver or a dark silver/charcoal type color.. not sure yet, i may have to test one and see how it looks.

i know i've seen some blue ones etc, havent been able to find any silver's yet though.

the black doesnt look that bad, it looks great on Gas Man's silver SS.

I say you keep on top of greybeard's progress of his headlights. Then buy his stock headlights and do it up yourself.

I surely hope greybeard keeps the loop of lights going. He's got a killer box for shipping and it's just a matter of time.

Ooooh ok, well it's a silver HHR, but the housings are black. I don't think I would see too much of a difference between the silver vs the chrome housing on a silver HHR. Just my opinion for now, until someone actually does it.

I am trying to post a picture of my headlights, but no matter what, the picture turns out gigantic on the website. I know how to size pictures and all that to conform to the rules, but I dont know whats wrong. Maybe i'll just upload them to my album.
