SKkeeterZ Posted December 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 might try the paint, also was wanting to smoke the corners and the rears i found this stuff called plastidip(rubber in a can) i have a very nice set of daisies that i painted with it, came out looking like powder coat, and the cool thing about this stuff is that it peels off really easy Quote Link to comment

SKkeeterZ Posted December 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 i also have a set of these with 5900K hids and i can't decide whether to paint the sealed beams or put in the hid's but i really hate those housings Quote Link to comment
Dirttrack510 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 I didn't bother with yellow film, I just bought the yellow running lights. #4412A Rockauto.com has em and so does Amazon.com they're under $15.00 each, slide right in and the color won't wear off. :D I've heard the spray on yellow paint works too, but I just wanted to do it once and not have to be bothered with any extra work.

SKkeeterZ Posted December 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 I would love to have some round lamps for my hardbody but all I can work with are squares Haven't found anything for 6x4 head lights Quote Link to comment
Loren Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 I am using the yellow film type on my goon,been on almost a year with no problems. I bought them through my work at NAPA,we got them from Performance Warehouse. They are made by Hella,& i'm also going to use the clear ones on my Hella H4 conversion low beams. It's a thick protective film that has adhesive on one side. I used a heat lamp to shrink/mold it to the curve of the bulb surface. They actually help alot in fog,or when I use the hi-beams . They aren't very spendy,but I forget the price. I'll look it up,& post part #'s for both yellow & clear. One of my H4's got a rock chip,a small hole actually,eventually filled halfway with water & blew the bulb. If i'd had the protective film on that wouldn't have happened. Quote Link to comment

banzai510(hainz) Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 get the paint can yellow. I have the film . What I did is put it next to the stove to get it warm and weegeed it on and then put a sealant on the edges so water doesnt get behind them. be honest I just have it for looks as most time I dont use the high beams any way and have bumper hella 500 that give me the extra light and H4 outers Quote Link to comment

SKkeeterZ Posted December 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 also at first i tried some adhesive and it didn't dry clear ended up redoing it and just spraying window cleaner stuck it on its very easy to remove also i cut out the yellow rounds to put over the lamps soo all i have to do is peel them off this was an experiment, just trying something Quote Link to comment

But seriously, yellow fogs have been around forever. And yellow headlights on race cars are to differentiate the cars at night (yellow on production cars, common with Lemans racing) Quote Link to comment
