unsanepyro, all it is is a spay can, u would have too remove tha thaillights or what ever lights u want done and spray from left not hiting the light across the leds to the right continue this process till u have the darkness tint u like. let it dry and use a clear gloss paint over with the same process always spray 5" inches away from leds and there u go. u can purchase this can in a racing tuning store or even ebay..

JDM headlight question

I love the headlights Boost-N-TL, did you paint them yourself for the JDM look? and if you did.... how did you get the whole headlight assembly off the car to paint it like that? even if they arent painted... anyone who can tell me the best way to paint mine for that look, id really apreciate it.

boost n tl... what numbers are you pulling with your car?? 1/4 mile,
also how much did you spend putting on the turbo and the air ride system. If its worth it i might consider putting it on my car..HEHEHE... finally a 2.5 with lots and lots of mods.

I got 13.8 on the 1/4 mile, w/ 7psi =10 lbs of boost! I could turn the boost up, but don't want to hurt the trans. the custom turbo was $7,500 and the air-ride was $3,000! GIRLS WITH THEIR MOUTH HANGIN...PRICELESS!

I bought them on ebay! and to take out the headlights, you need to take the bumper off and the metal brackits!

He might be talking about the blue lights above your gauges. Did you use individual led lights mounted in the guage cluster? Here in memphis is home to ZEX and TCI. If TCI doesnt have a torque convertor they can make one. I just bought my wife a 4 dr civic with mini me setup from a employee there. I check more into for you if you are interested.
