so i blacked out the truck but headlites (and rims too but ill deal for now) are bothering me, i dont want anything other then stock look and output but with less chrome inside. Ive been eyeballing amazon, ebay etc,. Do you guys have any ideas, suggestions, better brands, companys, vendors, member? I read thru some posts and theIMG_9696.JPG stickys for headlites but no real mention of it that i saw....No hids, retrofits or any of that stuff, no tinted lens just less chrome inside the housing. Cn i pop it apart and plastdip inside or not a good idea? Thanks fellas

Your headlights housing looks black already... if u black out the inside shinny chrome parts your light output will be. Sry weak.

Thanks and yes, I understand not around or near the bulb itself but the outside outer ring of the projector and the amber side marker is what im talking about

Not sure what's wrong with this site. That eBay link won't work.

Ok how about i get smoked headites and fogs and put better bulbs in so the output is same as stock. Is there a better bulb?

i know these arent the smartest questions but i dont know much about lighting and i cant stand being blinded by oncoming traffic so i dont want to do it to anyone else.

Help please.
