You really should do black headlights ^

Yeah i know....im aiming for a 99 Eclipse front & back conversion in the future...

Honestly, the talon front bumper is super sick. Put the 97-99 eclipse headlights on it, convert the rear to 97-99 eclipse spec and put the 97-99 sides on. That would be awesome, just keep the talon bumper.

BTW, a 2GB wing wouldnt hurt either

I can't do that...the 97-99 Eclipse headlights are different from the 95-96 Versions...If i wanted to keep the my talon front and still put the black housing Eclipse headlights..i would need to do custom work to the bumper....Anways I'm aiming for a jdm/uk conversion...Which consists of the eclipse front, amber sider markers, andd most importantly the eclipse back with the Euro Backlights....

Just paint your headlights that you have on there now. It will look really nice. I really like your car, way sleek.

Thanks for digging the car .....I actually tried to..but i couldn't get them open to paint.....and regardless i want to do the 99 eclipse conversion JDM/UK style....

Put them in the oven for a little while at about 200 degree's it'll melt the goopy shit that holds the housing together. then you can paint and reseal later.

I orignally tried to melt them using a blower which me and my friends used on some honda headlights.....It worked great o nthe honda headlights but for some reason didn't do it for mine....Instead of melting the adhesive..its started melting the plastic casing found in the back.....I wouldn't mind tring out your idea...but im a little worried about the same results..only worse...

Follow that link, it gives you step by step instructions with pictures on how to disassemble your headlights and paint them. Good luck if you either way

Yeah....All Talons comes with their mirrors and door handles black....When i bought mine the roof was already painted red....When i do my eclipse conversion i will paint my door handles red but leave the mirrors black cause i like the black top and will paint my roof black again....
