    - heat light up to soften adhesive
    - peel away lens
    - Take out 'loose' reflective part
    - spray (primer, spray etc.)
    - put reflective part back in (once dry)
    - heat adhesive, or use fresh and re-assemble.

    done

    there is a guide somewhere but basically you just heat up the head light so you can pull the lense off then once its off you can take out the reflector and paint it as you would paint anything else.

    i dont think bondie did the indicators. you can buy smoked indicators but i'm sure it would be possible to do it yourself
