Question **ENTIRE headlight housing painted on HID Retrofit?**

So, i'm looking at getting the HID Projector Retrofit done on my 03 F150 King Ranch Super Crew.

(yeah, i've posted a few diff posts)

Anyway, now my question is...Does anyone have pics of their ENTIRE Headlight housing painted? I see alot of the housings painted but the reflector is still chrome. My thing is since its no longer needed, why not paint this too? I havent been able to find very many done this way.

So if anyone has any pics of this done I would love to see it, preferably white trucks with White housings since my truck is white and thats most likely what I would do. Thanks! Man I cant wait to do this!!!

Too bad it'll probably be about 3 years b4 i can

Yeah, I saw that one, thats the one that gave me the Idea. Idk about painting the Projector shroud tho...I think i'm gonna leave it chrome. Seeing one in white would help decide.

I know your the "expert" on this...can you fit the angel eyse in ours with the Gatling Gun Shroud?

You should be able to custom order it if you call them.
