I just did this today!!! Except for the headlights. I did those last week.

Notice the edges around the headlights, signals, and taillights

I masked the lenses with tape and then painted the edges with Krylon Fusion gloss black.



*EDIT: changed a couple pictures.**

Taillights look much better, but it is difficult to see what was done to the headlights.

Ok I'll see if I can find a better before picture and I'll edit the post and put it in there.

*EDIT*
Foundtwo at almost the same angle as the other.

looks like I found my next project :D


verynice

Doesn't take long, costs about $8... why not?

Looks good, nice detail. Did you do them on or off the truck?

Off of course. Didn't want to risk any overspray.

It's the details that stand out, good job!

Thanks. I'm trying to figure out what else to paint since I'm getting better at it.

Anything that's chrome->black. That's my opinion of course.

I'll keep that in mind, but the grille is meant to break up the monotony. I want to keep it chrome.

I'm about to do away with the mud flaps on the back for sure and maybe paint the rear window finishing panels to match the body.

looks good, thats was good idea i would definately keep the grill chrome

Same here bud, i like chrome, the paint on the light edges look good though.:)

I did the headlights mainly to hide the caulk I used to seal up the drivers side headlight.

Yeah I like the detail job on the lights, they look more professional and clean looking now, rather than just something you got out of a box. Definately keep the grill crome, It would look bad IMHO if you painted that.

looks nice, probly going to do the same to my tails, i have the same tails. you made them look nicer. good job.

Looks good man , I like the way it adds that finished touch to the lights!!!
