Default I was bored so.......

I repainted my fog lights. I dont know why the metal looks like that. I think it is the reflection from the light. Dont think I did not mask the metal off but I did.

I painted them with krylon stained glass yellow paint. I decided to put them on. I will go out and take a pic of them on the car.

he didnt use that much, thats why they're kinda light, he just held the can back like 8-10 inches and kinda sprayed a couple of times just to cover it, kinda like mist spray action, turned out pretty good!!

I think I should just get new fog lights. These are kinda fucked up anyway. I had to grind off one of the screw heads to be able to get into the casings to change the bulb and I could not get all of the old paint off of the lense around the edge. I think I am going to get the real thing after I get my swap.
