Painted headlights and grill

Finally got a few good shots of my recent work. Did the headlights myself as well as painted the grill all black to tie it all in. Im going to start working on making an emblemless grill soon.

I wanted to do the colormatched shrouds, but i didnt want to have to fool with removing the entire projector to get the shroud off and then have to worry about the adjustments and all.

I started on a friday night at about 8 pm with disassembly of the front bumper. Ive done it before so it only took me about 15 mins. Finished with the disassembly of the headlights by about 11 pm. Began at about 7 am sat morning with prepping and paint. Final coat of clear coat went on at about 2 pm and the car was fully back together by 6 pm saturday. Total work time, ide say at least 8-9 hours...but you'll need a good day set aside for all the other disassembly and odds and ends work. Alll in all it really was easy to do haha
