good luck
when black decent condition headlights come available they usually fetch 4 figures.
i made my own. opened them up and painted them black.
or vette asthetics can do it for you. and also install new lenses at the same time.

Already have new lenses. Just need the bezels. How hard was it to paint them?

since you have new lenses, seperateing them would be easier, because if you crack the lenses its no big deal. that was the hardest part seperating the lense. but i had to be super carefull not to damage the lense.

If you have new lenses, removing the old lenses and the bezel will be easy. Lot's of great instructions on here.
I painted my VY bezels black, and installed new lenses.
A local body shop wanted approx $100.00 each to paint the bezels, so that's an option as well. The total including the lenses will be about 1/4 of the cost of new black headlight assemblies, if they are even available from GM.
RL Sebring may have black bezels for sale if you PM him.

I'm sure the other member will chime in, but
this is how I painted my bezels, and polished the paint afterwards.

I have a brand new set of genuine GM factory black bezels never used. I've 3D scanned these for future production so I can let them go now.

400.00 shipped and will refund 80.00 if you ship your GOOD USABLE bezels back to me. Pics of your bezels, top and bottom, will be necessary before you ship yours to me
