Has anyone tried painting the surroundings of the headlight in black? I am thinking of doing that to my CS06 as I really like this option on the Porsche Design 3rd Edition. Has anyone done that yet? Any thoughts?

it has been done before. there were some done in Russia.

I tried myself, and no luck to break appart the glass from the case without ruining it. I've tried heat gun and I even put it in the Owen, where i left it for more than half an hour at high temps. No luck.

then i asked a local company that is doing lexan custom covering, they practically change the glass of lights, and they said that the only method is to cut the case and then glue it together. I'm not at the first attempt, I've done before several headlights, but NONE was glued like this one. The GLUE itself its just hard and it doesn't melt like others are.

anyway, thats just my .02 cents, maybe you are luckier.
