    If you have retrofitted a projector on it then no problem. But if you're still using the stock bulbs magiging park light na lang yang HL mo

    also, some paints deteriorate rapidly when subjected to extreme heat.

    DIY
    I even painted the cut-off shields of my projectors to have a deep abyss look. Pero I use the high temp paint na sa because subject to extreme temp na ang cut-off shield but for anyparts 100pesos/can na bosny spray lang gamit ko hehehe.

    Actually previous vehicle initially was done by redline. I sent them both my headlights. Nung binalik na sa akin ang HL ko and I installed it back na, while adjusting the cutoff na sobrahan ko ng pihit so na laglag ang projector sa loob ng HL from its mounting screws. I'm from a small town in mindanao so mapamahal na ako pag ibalik ko na naman sa kanila ang HL ko for repair. So I tried to do the repairs by myself na lang and it turned out ok naman. The rest is history.
    Any reputable retrofitter can paint your reflector bowl. minsa nga libre na lang yan.
