Fiddled with the headlight bezels yesterday.

PO painted the headlight bezel inserts red.   I wanted them back to black.   Took a bezel and cleaned the old paint off, then used the 3m blue painters tape, taped it all up, then cut out the inset areas with an exacto knife, then used some semi gloss black.   Heres the comparison:


I think Crites or someone has the stickers to put in these, but they seem like a lot to me.  I did buy the stickers for the rear, as the PO painted those red too.
