there is a thread in our 'how-to' section, unfortunately the photos links are broken. You could try to contact Sam who created the post to ask for the original pics.

Yeah

I think the blacked out surrounds look much classier than chrome ones, which look a bit like tacky jap crap to me

I just used some matt black hi-temp paint from an aerosol can, you must sand the surround for the paint to key properly and take great care when disassembling the lights.
In fact you may as well send the reflectors off to be re-metallised while your at it, I use www.zeusproducts.com.au here in Melbourne, they make hardware for the funeral industry but they will do one off jobs.
