Thanks fahoumh

 

Those lights look hot with dark colored TL's...........nice job copyryte

 

Thanx BDI

 

Looks tight, but it looks like you still have the amber color for the turn signals or are those just the bulbs?

 

Those are just the bulbs. I've had problems before with the cops when I had my civic with clear corner headlights and hyperwhite turn signals...so I'll keep them orange.

 

Oh okay...couldn't tell from the pic...cool

Austin519: I used some Tremclad paint. It's for BBQ's. Semi gloss.

songoku: I saw your's and I said...damn that's the $H!+ How many of us have the blacked out headlights anyways?

jkc2121: Hehehehe push harder

 

ok, i have a GREAT solution to your orange bulb issue.

my amigo DuckBlue and I recently spent the time buying el cheapo Auto Zone orange bulbs and using a similar paint (like the one you used on the headlight area) to paint the bulbs silver.

I forgot the name of the company that makes the product, but it's called High Heat. It's a series of paints that can withstand 1200 F of temperature. the can shows it being used on BBQ's and stoves and all kinds of very hot places. We used the silver paint.

The idea is to put a light single coat of paint on, then let dry for about 30 minz. The effect is incredible. During the day, no nasty orange reflection, but they shine orange. well, enough to be legal (they are kinda dim). at night they light up and blink orange, again bright enough to be dim.

I'm not sure if DuckBlue posted any pics yet, but here is the link

definitly worth the $4 spent......

i would push harder but it seems as though bitium has disappeared.

 

here's the direct links to the pics showing the difference

left is original, right is painted
and it still shines orange when you blink

we got the idea from edub-tl, i think.. read his post a long time ago, just got around to doing it last weekend. do a search and i'm sure you'll find his thread. basically we just wrapped the bulb (with duct tape) and sprayed it. and for convenience, we just used another piece of tape to "hang" it dry

the difference is much more apparent in the protege pic though.. http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/truckglue...iew=t&.hires=t



oh yeah, feel free to look at some other pics.. like the neons.. hint hint..

 

did you/are you going to do the fronts too?

 

me, VDo, and you! (as far as I know...)
