Just wondering if anyone painted they're headlights a different color other than black. Mine are black but i was thinking what white would look like.

Yeah i painted them myself. Took the headlamps apart and no it doesnt affect the brightness. If you have a red car i would paint them red. That would look nice...

I know when i took mine apart, the black goo that was all around i scraped it off and used Windo-Weld Super fast Urethane to glue them back together.

Well the first time, yes. Thats why i removed all the goo and used the urethane, then used a big ass rubber band to keep it all tight for a couple days. Now it no longer gets leaks.
