    Painting a red 350x headlight shroud white

    So my 87 250sx restoration is finally coming to fruition. Only a few things left. I did the 200x front end swap with the 250r front fender, I also sourced a red 350x headlight assembly, its in amazing condition, but I want it white.. now when I finish this it wint be ridden much at all but I want something durable as well. Anyone recommend a type of paint to use? I can scuff up the plastic with fine sandpaper for adhering better. Just wanted to see what others have done and their results.

    Sounds like a cool project. You could buy a Maier re-pop plastic in white and swap everything from your red one over to it, which may be easier.

    Wow I guess I did over look Maier brand. Looks like they are new, I remember looking for them through Maier a while back and they didn't offer that. I might just go that route.

    Maier has only within the last year started selling the 350x headlight shells.
