not sure on the black

[exosteve]

but its better than bling
eventualy the bumpers will be replaced with something in black steel ( not alex style)

I dunno if I like the black and may go orange
or spray th bumpers black

[exosteve]

or I may even spray the whole thing matt black

[AlexD333]

I like it myself

Then again I love my rear bumper too

[R1cho]

looks good i reckon it would look better with the rest of the trim the same colour though

remember if you spray the trucks bodywork you have to declare it to the dvla, if you have it vinyl wrapped you don't because its not classed as a permanent change

[Sweety]

I'm not sure if I like it or not TBH but I think it's due to the chrome headlights but there is a way around that as the base S model came with black headlights or you could always get some Fly Eye film to cover the headlight which will make them look tinted & it's 100% legal to fit & use on headlights thinking of getting the silver option for all of my back lights

[R1cho]

i was thinking of some of the fly eye stuff for my lights but not 100% on the idea yet

[AlexD333]

Wouldn't that make the lights darker?

Head lights need de chroming. I'd oik the plastic front off and matt black all the surround just leaving the reflector bits silver
Then black the colour coded stuff

That works great & got the Son's headlights to do but it's not plastic on these their glass which i'd be a bit scared of breaking TBH

My thoughts too.
There only plastic and can be sanded to accept paint.
I was thinking of masking off the head lights and spraying in a similar fashion as r1cho's
Black.
Nowt to loose I've drilled them at the bottom to release water already.
I could fit a tiny rubber bung to disguise that
If it looks shit sorry forgot my tongue.
Then there easily replaced
Im of tomoz and have paint.

Or did you mean actually taking the lens off the unit and spraying on the inside?

I was thinking of masking the outside of the lenses but I don't think it would last very long.
Just rememberd the indicators are Dilled p!astic and lights are glass.
I will think of summat

Makes them look like they have been tinted but the light shines through the same well very slight drop in output but everyone I know who has done their headlights hasn't noticed any difference & if your running night breaker bulbs don't think you would notice any change

[elty001]

my plan is to paint the grill the same blue as my body and take the black plastic out and replace with galv mesh.
also going to move the led lights into the recesses on the bumper and use them as running lights as they are not bright enough for spots.

[jims-terrano]

Dont forget the lower spec face lift terrano headlights do have a black mask as standard. That grill is marmite! And im sorry but i prefer the chrome look.
