Default Painted headlights on my 09..........different..

Here is what I have been up to. Took a long time, but it is worth it.

TO answer your question, they are HARD to get apart. Took me almost 3 hours for the first one and almost 2 hours for the second (learning curve). They seal back to factory using black windshield sealant. It the same thing you are trying to bake out when seperating them.


More pics. Changed the grill and painted the emblem. Fogs are next.

Thanks Paul, I think there is zero chance of me blending in with another orange sport QC at this point.
