    Home made Halos/ Angel eyes?

    Right i think i saw this on a moped forum once, but on ebay you can get the angel eye rings pretty cheap for around £10, has anyone done this to standard lights? i dont have money to pay for £120 lights, so trying to do things on the cheap but still want a decent result. Im guessing the only thing holding the lense in is epoxy glue / sealant so just heat that up in the oven or heat gun and should pop off easy enough.

    also another question, can you paint the silver bit in the headlight? hard to explain what bit i mean but just the bit that surrounds the bulbs? i would want to paint them gloss black

    help would be appreciated.

    cheers

    They will look **** through flutted glass like the standard headlights are, end of.

    Angel eyes have been put in the lenses of Morettes, that looks good.
