well on my dc2 im thinkin of making the 2 inner lights yellow bulbs and yellow paint on the headlight, and white bulbs on the outter lenses. what sizes are the 2000 usdm headlight bulbs? and whats good yellow paint for the headlights?
or ?

 

Headlight Low Beam: 9006
Headlight High Beam: 9005

For painting the lenses you could use this product called Lamin-x or some crap like that. Try searching quite a few people have done this to their headlights, see what they have used.

krylon brand paint. I forgot the color name or code but its yellow.

 

lamin-x is actually a film that just sticks to your headlights, kinda like a window tint, but for your headlights. KRYLON actually makes this stuff. its specifically for painting/tinting acrylic, plastic like transparent surfaces. it comes in a variety of colors, but i cant remember off the top of my head exactly what it is called. my buddy brian has done this to his eg8 headlights. his car with the headlights like this is actually for sale on here. his name is pandahatch or something like that. if you wanna see pics of the krylon stuff, just check out his FS post to see pics. oh yeah, with the KRYLON spray paint stuff, you can make it as yellow as you want. just spray more coats!!!

 

looks like you beat me too it!!!!!

 

It's called Krylon Stained Glass Paint. You can get it at any popular crafts store. Wal-mart some times carry it.
IMO just get the bulbs

 

Why would you ever want to do that? Stock headlights not yellow and ugly enough for ya?

 

whatever thats your opinion. Some people like em and some don't.

yep I got high and low lights nokya too

 

 

Changing to yellow bulbs affect the light output?

 

What do you think? Of course. Anytime you shade/tint/color something your going to lessen its light output.

 

when i had yellow headlights in my car, it did lessen the light output a very LITTLE bit. i could see better at night though. kinda illuminates things and makes them stand out better. each thing had more contrast to one another.

 

dont paint your lenses or get gay *** yellow bulbs

do it right and get city lights

i painted my inner headlights and got the yellow bulbs.. i think the yellow actually helps illuminate objects better than normal headlights IMO..

 

is there a write up on how to paint them yellow??

 

This is why i love my DA!!! These dc2 look clean with them also, but with some color paint jobs I think it looks funny. That is just my opinion!!

 

i agree....city lights are way better...i got pulled over for having it painted....city lights arnt that bright ....go for city lights way cleaner look ....thats what im trying to do right now....just got my bulbs...waiting for thoes sockets
old....

 

Hahahaha looks like my thread has been the talk of the town, I used tint before, but it always caught the 5.0's attention with the whole yellow thing so I decided to look more stock and cleaner and more presentable. I see more and more ppl are doing the city light thanks to my thread. I'll be expecting more and more US front end DC with them in the future












[B]Check more on my thread @ https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1716378[/B]

 

I rewired my corner lenses to knock those hideous things out... if i want day time running lights i just turn on my headlights since they look pimp anyway. Your idea about the city lights has already been done i think they are called scatter bulbs or whatever and they illuminate the lense only a certain color, ive only seen blue but im sure you could get yellow...

 

^^ what bulbs did you use?? i know they are prolly 194's, but what color?? how did you make them SOOOOOO amber in color???

 

yeah I know that this idea was done before but was hard to find threads like these, not alot off ppl made threads like this for US front ends.
