Hi all, I am getting my headlights split & resprayed although not sure if to go satin black or gloss. Do people have any opinions or pictures of either colour so I can decide what to do for please.

Are they HIDs or normal ones? I swear mine aren’t that colour inside and I’m certain mine haven’t been taken apart before..

HIDs as far as I am aware. Everyone else's seem to be black inside & I have this horrible bronze/silver look

Ah right, mine are too. Is that silver colour really noticeable when they’re in one piece?

No, I can imagine to be fair. Mine’ll be black inside then.

I would go for satin black personally as I don’t know how the lights might reflect off a gloss finish. That silver looks satin and if so then I’m guessing they did that finish for a reason.

Yeah a few friends have said go for satin. I thought gloss at first but I think I will decide satin tomorrow

Will look great once it’s done, especially with the cover all cleaned up!

Silver was off the l pack I think or something like that . Mine are satin grey and look nice . Personally wouldn’t do gloss as it will reflect off the inside of the lens and make them look foggy
Ps of re using the lens make sure they get lacquered or they will fog up and go yellow again in no time
