Unless you retrofit projectors inside them....blacking out the reflective fog housing will turn the light output to ****.

Exactly. It will not be able to reflect. I've tried this with a 50% black to murder out a friends truck and even that basically rendered his fogs useless.

Plasti dipped the inside with black then gloss. Retrofitted cheap MH1 bixenon projectors and called it a day.

If you're just after looks, it would be fine; If you are after any actual functionality, you can't paint the reflector.

If you do paint the reflector, remember that it will get hot.

I did them. I put green painters tape on the reflector and come to find out the tape pulled the chrome off of the reflector so I had to do the whole thing .it's not too bad the light output did change a little. I painted them with the silicone spray that you put on header wrap it should hold up well it does look good though it will look better when I get my factory black Mopar lights in they should be here by Friday.
