    I did mine by baking and cracking the assembly to paint from the inside. ClearKornerz actually did it for the VX but I have done it on my WRX and STi. Couldn't argue since I have the only prototype set they ever did for the VX.

    Replaced all lights with LED clusters, painted the interior chrome lining with a satin black, re-goop, and re-bake. Best way to do it but it is a weekend's job and pretty messy. Lot's of folks end up screwing up on the baking part, but it is not too bad as long as you pay attention.

    I am still considering doing a set of headlights for the VX. I had one junker assembly to test on and the baking process is a bit more difficult with them, but do-able.

    Ya, watch that amber. When I lived in Jersey, I was hounded for having non amber signals. I have since found an awesome replacement though....

    I only found a direct application for my STi and they work excellent. A little grunt work would probably be ideal for the VX.

    I got a fix-it ticket for smoking my tail lights on my other truck.
