It's extremely easy to do yourself. I'm stupid as **** and I was able to do it.

Just remember to paint the textured part on the clear lense too, or it will look weird.

Hey foreverzero, is that the headlight kit that comes with the 6 pads in a little box for $9.99? The one that they "guarantee" is the best on the market? If so, How'd you like it? I got it, but haven't used it yet.

I used dupli-color gloss black caliper paint so it would match my manta... And it can withstand the high heat from the bulbs.
