yes thats exactly it, cheers mate...i knew i could take them apart to paint, but slightly concerned at doing that myself as they aint cheap if i break something! thought someone may fany changing theirs..

What paint did you use to do yours? I was thinking hammerite, but it wouldnt give a finish like on those above...

satin black spray paint. the bits you paint come completely apart from the rest of the lights, the chrome finish on the plastic just rubs off with sand paper and pop some black paint on. easy enough to do and nothin you can break really. there are plenty of good guides on here for how to do it.
