With PROJECTORS, they are doing all the work/aiming the light pattern. So yes, its fine to paint/smoke everything else inside the headlight assy.
Our headlights are designed to reflect the light off the inner side walls (sides closest to the center of car), after the deflector "deflects," the light.. as to not create a center "hot spot" in the headlight assy. There was more I read about this in my shop book on the headlight topic. |

Look mum no stars!!

dont even think thats a prob with the yaris....the inside side reflective parts, the mirrors project the light right? not the silver thingys well it might add more light.....but not much right?

Getting closer!
Picture 008.jpg Picture 009.jpg It took me 45 minutes just to get the two headlights looking the same, but as they say... measure twice, paint once. Should look good! |

I would REALLY like to paint my headlights... But I am worried about the Re-sealing Process... Lord knows if I fuck it up... I will get condensation and water in my headlights... That would kill me... I would feel like I killed my baby!
If one of you more veteran headlight painter guys would be willing to supervise the process for me... I would feel more comfortable... Hey East Coast guys… Yaris meet-up/Mod event? We can pick a hotel that we can all get to...get a couple of rooms and spend the weekend hanging out and working on our cars? If I drive for 2-3 hours I don't want to turn around same day and drive another 2-3 hours home... It would be more like a Yaris Conference! |
