I was wondering where you were at on this. I'm really interested to know how it turns out... And how much it cost lol

$780.00 for the retrofit + $250.00 for the extra set of headlights. My OEMs will cost more when they are available.

Sounds for enough if the quality is there and they look good.

Go to the sickhids.com website to see their work.

I have seen Fiesta ST owners in the UK take their headlamp housings and paint them black, which is exactly what is on the concept ST. The European ST headlamps are very sexy, and painting them black makes them even better.

Mehh... Not really a fan of those. I prefer what we already have

To paint them black you have to open them. If you open the lamp unit maybe some water can get to the inside.
I know that the guys in the UK have black or dark vinyl / tint film to put over the lamp. Unfortunately this is not leagl in germany

The european ST/Titanium Lamps would be perfekt if they would be black inside...

But i have to say that the light is only good if the glas of the lamps is clear. if there is any dirt or some drops of water/rain, then the light is not very good. this is the bad side of the st lamps

The temperatures are very high inside a headlight, especially when HID projectors are used. Ceramic paint is the only type of paint that will stick and not eventually peel off. If you open them up, you need to use the right kind of adhesive to close the headlights. It is important to make sure that the vents are installed properly after you ate finished.

krylon plastic paint oes the job and has been holding for years in a 75w hid retrofit i've done for a friend.. honestly there is more chance of melting something than seeing this paint peel off lol.. i will be doing a retrofit on my car soon!
