Black Headlight Bezels
The first thing you have to do is remove the entire headlight unit from the car. To do that, you first remove the corner lenses by opening the hood and loosening the holding screw thats in the corner between the corner lens and headlight:
After you've loosened it, the corner lens slides right out.
After taking out the corner lens, you then have access to the bolts you need to loosen. There are a total of 4 bolts, 2 on the side and 2 on inside of the engine bay. You must loosen these bolts to remove the headlight unit from the car.

The bolts on the back a bit tricky to get out if you dont have the right tools.
After removing the bolts, its sort of a pain to get the unit out. You have to pull the front of the bumper back far enough to allow room for the headlight unit to slip out of its fastening holes. I had a friend pull back the bumper while I removed the headlight.
Once the headlight is out, you need to remove a series of clips the hold the glass on. They are easy to remove with a small flathead screwdriver.
Once you take off all the clips, the glass needs to pulled off carefully. If you drop it, your out 600 bucks. But once the glass is off, the bezels need to be removed. They are held on with three plastic fasteners that can be popped off by hand.
Now the fun part :)
When you finish painting them, make sure you let them dry for a few hours. They need to dry longer than normal because any moisture on the surface from the paint needs to be gone before you put the bezels back in the sealed unit, otherwise, in a few days you will have annoying condesation on the inside that you cant wipe off.
When you are ready to put the bezels back, you have to line the fastener clips up with where they need to go on the unit.
Put the glass back, and put the clips back on with a flathead screwdriver (practically the same way you took them off).
Putting the unit back in is much easier than taking it out. Just make sure you get the bolts to line up in the right holes so you can put the nuts back on. And when your done... voila!
