Just blacked out some more Evo X headlights

This is the 4th set I've done now. I have to say its getting easier and I'm getting faster at doing them.

I know I hate it, Its a BFG army plate designed to make us look like tourists, we aren't allowed our own personalised number plates which really grips my ****!

Once I come back to UK i will get a private plate.

Nice! you'll have to get some pics up.

I've never tried any of the older evo's. I've got a set of Evo X RS halogen lights to next, but I'm gonna have to leave the main beam reflectors chrome otherwise the wont pass an MOT.

How hard is it to split the headlights on an evo 8? And what paints best to use?

Great job mate. Really make the front look menacing.

Haven't done a set of 8 lights yet, but I imagine its just the same. I use normal matt black spray paint, others use plasti-dip.

just use any car paint in a rattle can, I used Satin black on mine

I went for gloss but let's face it, rattle can finish is never like a real paint job
