I was thinking if doing black headlights and then painting the tails silver, to match the black and silver paint job of my truck, has anyone done this?

Never seen this...suggest if your good at photoshop, doing a drawing of it first to get an idea. Personally, I don't like the black headlights or any of the aftermarket ones...I run the Lightning Headlights with Clear Corners and Lightning Tails.

Look at post 9 and you can see the difference with the L headlights and the stock HD lights...I just didn't like the amber stripe on them...didn't flow well with the 2 tone paint.
IAMFROZEN did a paint job on his tails IIRC, but he has a DSG and he painted them DSG with a Harley Pattern in them...came out pretty damn cool.
Agree. IMO the black heads look a bit rice. L heads look best, especially on a Shamu. The chrome heads blend so much better than black heads.
The amber stripe sticks out like a sore thumb. Nothin else is Orange, its amazing how much better a headlight swap looks. On any color HD.
Those headlights look sick, I thought about putting LEDs in the amber stripes, but I like those lightning ones better, I guess I will be trolling lightningrodder for some stockers
Do what I did for the headlights & corners...look for someone who has a Red Lightning and offer to trade them straight up. Check out another site Lightning Forums - LightningGarage.com and post up a WTT thread (Want to Trade)
As for the L tails...your gonna have to buy them as I still have my stock HD tails in the attic.
Ok, the lightning tails are clear with chrome? I think I like my stockers better than that. Maybe I will just smoke them.
These are the Lightning tails
Yeah, I guess I will just stick with the stockers. I will try painting then still. If that doesn't work I will try something else.
stock lights look the best, all around
