I wouldnt do anything on a white unless you do a light smoke. Upper only looks great on a black car, but on a lighter car it looks home-made.

I did the upper half of mine in black and didn't like it, tried the whole light and still didnt like it. I stripped it all off and went red on the whole lense.

I really dig the look.

The painting process is reversable by sanding the paint layer off and applying just clear coat. It is a much simpler overall process if you leave a sliver unpainted in the reverse lamp area.
