It's easy. Cut the housings along where the black and grey plasic meet, but deep enough to remove the lense. There's 3-4 hex screw that hold the bezel in place which makes is cake to remove to paint. I removed the chrome with 1000 grit 3M wet/dry, but left the turn signal it's chrome. Mask the remaining chrome off with BLUE painters tape because it will be less tacky and won't want to rip the chrome off the plastic like tan or yellow tape will. You still have to pull it off slowly and over itself after primering and painting. Clean the bezel with a dish soap that doesn't have lotions and hot water, then primer/paint safe wax and grease remover with a lint free rag. lite coat of plastic primer, sealer primer, base coat and then clear (after letting each coat fully flash of course and tack clothed in between coats of course.) Clean up the mating surface for the lense and housings, reinstall the bezels and seal the headlights back up with black silicone. Take extra care with the sealing because most have problems fully resealing these headlights.

Any other questions, post away

I used a black and a semi-gloss clear for my headlights, but you can pick your own color and sheen.
