Painted light surrounds (pics)
I just did this today!!! Except for the headlights. I did those last week.
Notice the edges around the headlights, signals, and taillights
Before:
After:
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.

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