Tinting/coating the actual bulb? I wouldn't trust that for a second. I've seen tons of "factory-coated" ricer blue bulbs that have the coating flake off after just a few months of use.

Well I haven't seen a dye for that, but I have seen films. www.stickercity.com carries it I think. I got clear film from there to protect my headlight lenses, but they have other colors (smoke, yellow, blue). Pretty illegal for the colored films, though.

Por-15 Color Chrome is the paint product you want.

It does a great job in creating selective yellow headlamps.

Wow, wish I'd known about that before I bought vinyl for my fog lights.
