I went through all the trouble to paint my housing black only to realize I didnt like the yellow turnsignal. So I took it out...

It looks really good though

Heres pic of my headlights blacked out..http://community.webshots.com/user/edr0e

I put in these titanium bulbs which are clear during the day when the lights are off. But at night it is amber... 100% legal..
