Thumbs up PIAA Ion Yellow Road Lamps Installed - Amber Parkings Lights Out

f

Took out all amber lights from the lighting, and did the PIAA Ion Yellow's with the 6000K. I can't decide if I should put on the yellow film or not!

Here are some more pics of the fogs, and I'm also going to attach a preview of my next mod coming in the next 2 weeks or so:



And here are some more pics of the yellow fogs:







EDIT: For some reason they don't look that yellow in these pics, but in person they look much much more yellow. I am still up in the air about the yellow film over top of them to emphasize the yellow, but I don't think it will look right with the amber reflectors, honestly.

Yeah i had this yellow bulb/film setup for a while and it was cool for a bit but went back to the 03 garnish. I think you should go with the 03 garnish as well, will be alot cleaner looking

The yellow film looks good, but I think it will look cleaner being clear on silver.

MJH why did you black out the "A" badge on the front of the car? it looks unfinished with the chrome splitter bar, black that out too. the yellow film really enhances the light, but when its not on it looks much better with it being clear.

The black "A" in the grill is to match the black Acura "A" on the trunklid. And paitining the horizontal chrome bar would leave a horizontal chrome bar in the lower grill (between fogs) out of place. So I can either put both the front and rear emblem back to chrome, or leave it the way it is.

yeah I think the yellow film is dependent on body color - looks hot on white, I don't think it looks so good on silver. leave em clear or go with smoked rockblocker to match your 03 headlight housings

Exactly, that's what I'm doing, clear.

Now in terms of my black emblem it looks real good in the rear but does look kind of out of place up front. So I'm either going to do the chrome in the front/rear or leave the black. I don't think the front black emblem looks that bad because it flows with the black tint and black housing headlights, but who knows.

I still vote '03 inserts. The lower set of lights is just too much for our front ends to stay clean. Just my 0.02
