Default headlights

i have black halo headlights right now and love them but i like the stock style headlights with a black housing too. i was thinking about painting my stock ones but they look like crap right now. they are all fogged up looking and stuff. i dunno i was just going to experiment with them and see if i could make them look good. anyways, how do i go about getting that "fogged up" look off my headlights? plus, if i go hid, i dont think i can use my halo projectors.

Are you asking about smoking your headlights? Fogging is different from smoking.

pop the clear cover off, wipe it all out, put it back on and seal the seam up with a bead of silicone all the way around. Thats what i did before i installed my projectors and havent had any moisture issues since. Hopefully that helps ya out man

LOL. No is saying that hes headlights right now are all foggy. He wants to get rid of the foggy stuff and then paint them DIY CTR style.

TRATER!!.......J/k. HIDs would be really sick. I always think about doing the CTR style headlights too but it like EVERYONE has done it, so overplayed. But if somthing ever goes wrong with my headlights and i cant fix it,I will do the ctr style.

if they are aftermarket ones and are plastic, then use some toothpaste and rub it in circles on the glass then buff it off, clears them right up, not 100% but a hell of a lot better.
