Look at Nolimitz threads, I believe he originally didn't do the hi beam but went back and did them. I don't personally like black-out headlights but they look better all black.

Re: i need (pics) help making a choice....

scvscions did mine cuz i was scarred to bake them. he opened em, blacked out the housings (except the high beams) and smoked the turn signals. I think it looks great. much better than smoking them. i think it looks very takky when u paint the highbeams because it just makes them useless

true.... im really thinking of leaving my signal orange and leaving the hi-beam and maybe the inner signal chrome
but everything else black

is there a way to make the orange signal yellow?

do you have pics?

you could buy the clear corners from customxbguages.com and tint them yellow.

Re: i need (pics) help making a choice....

if you want yellow reflectors buy em of customxbgauges.com and just tint them yellow. your not gonna find any other way to get yellow side markers.
