has anyone done it? seen a picture of a black lib somewhere that had it, and looked quiet ok

when i was installing my angel-eyes i stupidly put a fingerprint on the inside of the glass and on the chrome/blue ring and its really starting to annoy me.

only planning to paint the chrome/blue ring around the projector and the chrome bits around the indicator..

what would be the best paint to use? to stick to the chrome??

or does someone have a better idea? :D

I'd say a shadow chrome, so a really light layer of black paint so it's still shiny. Otherwise your indicator is going to be near useless!
