Aftermarket headlights

I recently bought the car and it came with ugly chrome headlights. Is there any way to make them look decent, say paint the chrome black? before I get my hands on stock ap1 headlights in a couple of months.

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to open them up and paint them.

Just make sure they are not the JDM/EDM lights. If so, I think they are expensive. You could sell them and get an original pair.
