Default did my headlights this weekend

got bored and did my headlights this weekend. Maybe its me but these seem to be easier to do then the older model ones, except for the suprise bolt that hold the inner housing part that u paint to the outer housing. I like the way it looks i just need to get rid of the chrome bumpers hate them

Can you give some step by step on the actual seperation of the headlight? I have a black FX4 and that chrome really slaps you in the face. I want to do this mod bad but I'm worried about screwing it up.

Color match lights are sweet. Did that on my last car, and on a buddies car.

I'm also tempted to color match them, but I'm a bit scared I may break them... I don't think I have enough patience.
