I forgot to say thank you for doing this too but I just found a pic that I forgot to upload, any chance you could do that? It should be above this post. it has a better view of my car.[/quote]

Sorry man, I tryed to do that one for you, but there isn't enough contrast in the headlamps so a definitive line can be established. If you had one that was less bright, and showed more detail in the headlight are, then I'm sure I could do it.
Maybe cc could do it, I'm still a PS noob.

should be up before midnight, but might not be by much.
No problem fuel, anytime.

guys its hard to simulate it even with photoshop.. because part of the bottom that is painted will reflect giving it a shaded look when the lights are off. Only way is to test it out.

I also tinted the whole housing to give the look of black reflecting.
I did mess up a bit on the passenger side HL, more should be tinted, but you get the idea.
