I decided to 'Terminator' my VIII MR headlights.

Today I split my lights apart & plastidipped the chrome bits in the side lights & indicators black. I also painted the teal half moon thing red for a 'Terminator' look

You can always paint it back if you don't like it

It's Hexis Carbon wrap

I took some comparison photo's. The red isn't totally gone with the lights on but it took me several shots to capture it at it's worst (4th pic down)

The light projection on the wall isn't red at all.

Lights off...


Lights on...
