Looking for some input here, has anyone attempted a do it yourself set of Harley headlights. I currently have 2007 lariat OEM headlights but I'm wanting to make mine look like this:



Looking for any suggestions or advice how to do it myself or maybe its easier to just buck up and pay the $400 for these.
Thanks in advance.

 

Ive been wanting to do mine, just havnt had time. No way in hell am i paying that much for black headlights lol

 

I just paid $69 shipped for black headlights on ebay.....brand new....I will post the seller I used later. They are really $85 shipped but ebay sent me a $15 coupon. 3rd purchase from this seller and have yet to be disappointed. Just run an extra bead of silicone around the seal and you will be golden.

The seller is ipexmotoring, I bought the clear reflector lens set.

 

How do you plan to make yours black?

 

What is the difference between the ones ipexmotoring sells and OEM Harley headlights?

 

Same way everyone else that did it at home. There are a few on here that ive seen. Pretty much you have to bake them, pop them open, prep, paint, and then reseal them. Theres a youtube video on how to do it too.

 

Now the debate, is it worth spending the $85 knowing they'll come right or save the money, try to do them myself and run the risk of messing them up.

 

I figure, it only cost me time to do it myself since i already have everything i need to do it. And if i totally screw it up, well then ill probably spend the $85. But its worth a shot

 

Valid point.

 

I went ahead and just bought a set off of ebay just because if I did mess up the stock ones the truck would be down until the new ones came in and it takes forever for things to be shipped out here
