Paint looks great,headlights look like crap.
this is very true, It really bring attention to how yellow my headlights are :)
:Bang
 
I still cant get over how awesome this came out and how cheap it was. I showed a ton of my friends and they were like "Holy $hit!"
 
do u know if they sanded the chrome parts or anything cuz i have a feeling, that after a year the paint wont stick on the crome any more.

wow, that's a huge compliment coming from you. To be honest I was a little suprized too. I mean I had my wife's car painted there before, but it was black and I figured black isn't very hard to match up, but it turned out a lot better than expected.

I sanded down the grille, all the chrome molding i took the plastic seal off and sanded the paint, the only part I didn't do was the top metal of the grille and the trunk. I don't know if they sanded it or not, but they said if anything chips off that they will re-paint for free, so I really don't care either way :)
 
If its done right, prepped properly and used good materials it should last as lomg as any metal painted surfaces.

Mine is almost 5 years old now and looks like the day it was painted.

Since you were not interested in the new headlights I have for sale, I also have my original pair, they look a lot better than yours.They are still pretty clean, It's the inside reflective material that sucks on them, the lenses are not yellowed or burnt looking.$100.00.
