this is what i did to my car.
painted silver, then clear film put on for protection because it was getting chipped off from rocks and such.
color match to the rest of the headlight housing is almost perfect.

djomlas,
looks great! wow! so, i'm sure this will be a novel for you, but how exactly did you do it? what did you use for paint? did you have to paint both the inside and outside of the orange on the housing?
thanks in advance for your info, and thanks for sharing your ideas and picture!

its quite easy, took about 10 minutes,
take headlight out, mask off what you want to paint (all the orange), scuff it down lightly with sand paper, use silver paint (got aluminum paint from autozone), spray, wait a day or so so its fully dry, cut and apply clear film.
that is it.
light output kinda went down, but still visible, but i must admit i barely use turnsignals hahah (bad) o well, it looks much better than the orange. btw, take the triangles out and paint seperately
i have litronics now waiting to be figured out
heres another pic
