hello,

anyone have any suggestions for upgrading my headlights?

I have a darker ram, tints on windows, black wheels etc and want the headlights to go with same look. I wouldn't mind the halo's etc but don't want to break the bank. Any suggestions?

Also, how hard is it to paint the inner bezel a darker color? What paint do i use to do the inner bezel?

Not that hard, hardest part is opening up the lights, take a look in the diy section there is a complete write up about it

I had your answer until the "break the bank" comment,

I upgraded my Blacked Out 10' to the new 13+ projector heads
Jeremy at the Retro Shop murdered them out, drop in HID upgrade too.
He has a plug and play adapter so any 4G Ram can run the new heads.

That still didn't break the bank for me though, ordered another set with FX-R retro fit , Fog HID kit,
and very close to getting my new tinted out LED tails in, just need JJ's PnP adapters.

I suggest painting the bezel black. If you don't feel comfortable doing it your self check retro shop out. He can do anything with them from halos to just pulling them apart and painting them depending on what you want to pay. I personally would like to get them to paint the bezel black and drop in some hid's but not ready to drop that much money as I have a kid on the way.

I bought a cheap set of quads off craigslist to play with
I just pulled them apart, sand blasted the insert and painted
