    Sorry. But do I need to sand the standard silver off ? Or just primer them straight away?

    Also what sandpaper for when sanding in between coats or primer and paint?

    i just sanded mine down with a fine sandpaper then put the black straight on.

    i gave mine 4 coats of black without primering and they are perfect. i didnt sand between coats either.

    Admitantly, i was lazy, but it turned out fine

    Dont worry about primer or spray, T cut them and they will turn black, abit like the badges.

    They won't mate, thats only fog lights, the headlight inserts turn a grey white colour.

    Before any one says It ..... I already know this is a old thread but dont see the point in starting a new one..n I want to do this, will this not make the lights less bright ? If it dont then ill crack on and do it.

    Doesn't make a difference to mine and is very easy to do.
