I didn't mind the orange reflectors at all, but since this was something cheap to do, I figured..why not? The paint was only $5 and everything else was just labor.

I used Dupli-Color Engine Enamel in Semi-Gloss Black. I wasn't really digging the flat look, so I chose this one. Sprayed a couple of coats then baked them in the oven after it was put together. Got it nice and hot to seal it back up and used additional Silicone sealant to clean it up.
