I might be interested in blacked out headlights and tails.

Can you make the tails to look like the EVO 7 tails? See below:

Hi All, here is how it works!

Before hand - if you are in the DC/VA/MD area we'll do the install - but if you are far out of state you'll need to:

A) Remove your headlight
B) Ship it to Atlantic Motors (whichever way you prefer, 2 day or overnight for expedited service)
C) We paint your headlights in 1 day and mail it out to you FREE via expedited service!

Turn around time is rather quick, only down for a couple of days if that.

We 100% garauntee no leaks and condenssation.

We've done a couple of sets and they look amazing - don't know why Mitsubishi has not done that from the factory. They look like the MR headlights.

Thanks all, call if you have any questions.

There is no way to get the headlights apart without heating them. I have painted numerous headlights black from all different kinds of cars. There is absolutly nothing wrong with using the oven. It is the fastest and safest way to heat the headlight evenly in my opinion. The only other way is with a heat gun, which can get really hot and case warping of the plastic if not carefull. Either way works, I dont know why you feel as if the oven is a bad thing, its not.

We've seen too many melted headlights from the oven. And yes, we use a heat gun.

If you come to the shop, figure an hour to remove the bumper and lights, then a couple of hours for the painting and reassembly, then another hour to put everything back together...give or take a few minutes here and there. It's not difficult work, just time comsuming.

Can you take a pic of the headlight where the glue is applied to reseal please. I just wan't to make sure that it is not noticeable that it was opened. Thanks. This will be my deciding factor.

There is a silicone bead where the headlights get resealed. We could easily use black sealant to conceal the work done.
