transparent yellow paint should work... something like this: http://www.rickersauto.com/ozautoai115.html

or the stained yellow plastic glass should work fine either... you can glue the glass to the fogs

Is there any reason for you to do this? If you like it then more power to you but most people don't like yellow lights just amber.

Try some yellow saran (sp?) wrap for the ultimate in JDMness.

If you are wanting a yewwlow lens or a yellow light? I have the Piaa Ion yellow bulbs and they're great. I have OEM foglights on my hatch which have the clear lense but the bulbs are yellow when on like in the pic.

Or you could go the more expensive and better performing route and retro them if you have the patience.

go to your local Hobby/Craft store and go to the isle w/ there Aerosal cans and look for Stain glass color. it's used to do stained glass windows w/ just regular clear glass.
I did it to a friends fogs a month or so ago..It was quick and easy. Cleaned them up real good and then did a few light layers..
Hope this helps out and if I get a chance I will get some and write up a quick DIY w/ pics...

Yellow H3 bulbs. If you get tired of yellow lights you can use normal bulbs.

Yellow is a legal color. as long as the lights are not red blue green then you should be alright.
