You shouldn't lose any viability because you aren't paiting the shiney part that reflects the light.

Yea... don't paint the reflectors which are attached to the black back part that you cut from the lens, just paint the plastic insert... you'll see what I'm talking about when you open it... Like Code Red states above, you don't lose any light stuffs.
