Help with Black/painted headlights

I read the DIY on painted headlights, and saw some pictures of the results, I really want to do this. My problem is with as expensive as these things are and this mod being a little more difficult I don't want to do it myself.

Does anyone know of a shop around KC that would do this work? Maybe even a forum member who does it on the side? Any help would be appreciated.

It would be helpful if you told us where "around town" is. 180 customs does good work for headlights.

I guess that's a slightly important detail. I'm on the south east side of kansas city. I'm looking for either a local shop, online, or forum member.

I had a dodge a while back and there was a guy who would ship you tinted tail lights and then you ship your tail lights back to him so that there was no down time That worked pretty well.

Get 180 to do them. Mail em, they do the work, then ship back to you.

There is NOBODY better than what they do.

I just checked out some of their work and it's amazing! I've gota about 5 different designs I could think about having them do. I don't know that I can afford the turn around time to mail the lights to them and get them back though.

I'm keeping them in mind but I'd love to hear of any other options.

find someone local to do this, 180 is the best but if something wrong after few months then you will have another down time to send back to them to fix ... that's the only draw back.

I would do them for you, not exactly local, I'm in Minneapolis, not as good as 180 but much cheaper. Just thought I'd throw it out there. Here's my lights...
