if you really wanted to make this happen....go to a graphics shop, have them laser cut it out of a matte clear vinyl and apply it to the lens face....there should be a vinyl that can withstand the temps...this way it would be exact, clean and spot-on.
just a thought.

Good idea. But I'm not going to do this. I love the red.

Haha, nice DK, if I wasn't abroad and have limited access to Internet, I would offer you an alternative way to achieve what you're trying to do.
The Evo scene has actually done things similar to this 2 years ago, and the red lens look can be done another (simpler) way without painting.
Alternatively, HIDPlanet's crew take it a step further and install LED that can be switched on/off to illuminate the lens only.

Found a image on a Lexus forum where he posted a pic of a Maybach headlight. Then when I clicked it, I saw the Lexus RX with the blue behind the projector. 
That's what I'm going to do. How was your vacation?
Thanks the site. Checking it out right now. Some impressive stuff.

I am really loving the progress of this project. Have a quick question about blacking out the headlights. I love the look, especially with Orion's. When your low beams are on, now that it is blacked out; is the light concentrated more since you have blacked out the reflectors thus not allowing it to spread as much? I mainly ask in relation to driving at night if you lose out on visibility.
Thanks!
Thanks!
