Default Added black headlights

Thanks to choppy hooking me up with an extra pair that he had, I was able to add them to my machine silver. I probably rate the install on the same level as adding headers. Lots of pulling and pushing for the removal and installation. On a side note, Choppy and his wife are wonderful and I feel as if my son's and I have known them forever. His Zr1 is truly a beautiful machine in every aspect. Choppy made my son's world by taking him for a drive.

Black headlights go great with a silver car

I took this picture of a white vette that had a similar paint scheme as yours. He put a little bit of black on the nose just to tie it together and not just have the hood black.
