So i did the whistler mod, i used flat black paint and it looks awsome. I will have pic's up soon, but i have one problem. What do you use to put the weather stripping back onto the headlight? I used double sided tape but it didn't stick at all.

The latest in headlight fads for Camaros. You know, first it was halos, then projectors, then whistler (taking a stock headlamp, destroying it to put some tacky looking paint on the reflector), then black halos, then black halos with leds.............on and on and on.
Then guys like me pull their hair out trying to restore the car back to the way it looked best (stock). Want to see something even tackier? Take a look at the "pimp" tailights on my Z28. Just click the link in my sig. Awesomeness. Heck, I need to update that thread. Just got a lot more done and been to lazy to update it.

funny how people talk ship about the whistler mod.... but alot of factory cars comes with headlights painted black inside... and btw you dont paint the reflector. you paint all the portions around the reflector. such as mine below. mine was done with duplicolor primer, duplicolor black, and duplicolor clear.
