2Ga Black Housing Headlights: Completed [Merged 11-7]

[BacknBlack92ESi]

On Saturday I painted my 2Ga Housings on my Talon black. I didn't know how they would look on a green car. But I went with it anyway. It turned out better than I thought. Makes the car look alot more aggressive. I have done this a couple times before so I knew what I was doing. Well here are some pictures.

BTW: Have a friend to give you a hand if you need it You'll get it when you see the picture.

Heh, funny, I painted my housings black as well. Just finished actually. But I left the clear refractor out and painted the area directly behind that black. No pictures, but I think you know what I mean.

[BacknBlack92ESi]

DCsGST and I did mine... ok mainly DC and it looks WORLDS better doesn't it? A shame the Eclipse didnt see the strets much with them tho... and we never could figure out how to polish out the fog on the drivers side one

Infamous.....Our cars are twins. Almost. I just need a front mount. I really like the look of the front with out the fogs. Oh. I used some Mother Mag and Alum. Pollish on the inside and outside of the Lens. Helped out alot but I think they can be better.

Lookin good

Yeah I did mine a long time ago, does look a lot better I just wished I knew of the mothers mag aluminum polish to use on the inside of the lens. I wonder how clean it would be if I had used it...damn.

Ya but yours is AWD and mines not turbo anymore but ya the black hosuing looks sooooooooooooooooooooooo much better then chrome- I'll probably do it on my 93 TSI

Looks good, especially with the orange cleared out. I would of painted the housing to match your car, I think that looks better, based on the custom headlights I've seen done on a green Eclipse.

I thought about it. But I didn't know how well it would turn out. But I stuck with black and I like it.

Im looking to buys some halo projectors and was wondering if black or chrome headlights look better on a white/black talon. thxs

 

[snowborder714]

Black FTW I originally wanted the chrome ones but then saw a few cars with each (black and chrome) on and decided the black looks a lot better.

Here's 2 pictures I found quickly.

White 2G Eclipse - Black projectors

White 2G Eclipse - Chrome projectors

And in that last link, if you look at the 'Filmstrip' section below the main picture, you'll see another shot from the front.

 

[turbosax2]

Black FTW

Agreed.

 

[TAndrus]

Would black halos, or chrome halos look better on an all black talon?

 

[snowborder714]

Again, black FTW

Black Talon - Black projectors

 

[turbosax2]

Agreed.

I have the black halo projectors from ebay. I think they look great and would highly recommend them. Check out my profile pics, I have an all black eclipse.

 

[dragonov_elite]
