I would like to paint the inside of the lights a different color is it possible to take/disassemble the headlight housing?

Here is how to remove the headlights:

I have heard of people baking them in the oven at 350 degrees to soften the glue and then taking the cover off and repainting them. My friend found a set of black headlights on ebay for $600 and he just decided to buy them and replace them and we are going to sell his stock white headlights.

Do you have any pics of the black head lights on the white car?

This is the best pic I have so far. The weather has still been pretty crappy in Chicago so we haven't had much chance to take pics. The car looks pretty badass now though. He had the stock rims powdercoated black, we blacked out the headlights and sidemarkers, and he had the Targa Band Painted black! I will post more pics as soon as I get some.

That turned out nice... I would like to see a complete photo from a distance when you get one.

Yeah, this picture does not do the car justice! The fact that we are in the middle of a snow storm right now in Chicago wont help me get any pics faster though!!!
