Painted headlights?

Hi Guys,

What are your thoughts on painted the front headlights to body colour?
It would be done to an early 2002-2005 L322.

Hi Ram!

I think it depends on how tastefully other modifications have been done, if any.

Your first pic, despite my initial negative thoughts when I read your post, is rather good. Far better than I imagined. It takes a lot of the bulk away from the lights, lessening their blocky appearance. Si. <This is my name.

A man ain't truly been insulted until he stands buck naked in front of a woman and she didn't even notice. Or care.

Looks ok in black

Not sure about the blue though , bit too much imo. If it dont work.......burn it!

If the IId tool cant fix it.......burn the FF.

If the FF cant be fixed......buy a Land Cruiser!

If the LC cant be fixed..............................................BUY a horse !!

First one looks ok but then you would have to paint the grill to match

I quite like them.

Like posted above, you'd obviously have to do the grille too, or it would look strange. 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

It is sort of what they did with the p38 towards the end of its life

Thanks for the feedback.
The first image still has the plastic cover on the indicator side whereas the second doesn't. I think that alone makes a big difference.
I'm going to see an L322 soon, lets hope it is as described.

I'm with Belini. I was very prepared to hate it, but the black car looks rather good.
