    Adhesive holds on the entire outer lens you actually see when on the car. I'd recommend taking a heat gun or hair dryer to the edges of the outer lens and gently try to pry it apart. Be careful on what type of paint/glue/adhesive remover you use since it can cause the lens to actually crack...

    Just paint it on the outside like most of us have done. Clear coat it and you shouldn't have any problems.

    Too smooth of a surface perhaps? You talking about the bulb housing or what?
