Default Has anyone ever painted their headlights?

I've seen the DIY post on the "Chrome Headlight Mod" but I was wondering if anyone has ever painted the chrome bezel? Pics would be nice.

I'm trying to figure out how much of a pain it would be or if I should just buy the lamps with the black bezels.
