Default Lamin-X Del Sol Opinion

With Lamin-X photoshopped on.



Original:



What do you think about it? I think it looks amazing, even though it is not legal. I am allmost 100 percent on doing this, the headlights on their own lack some luster, plus it makes the car stand out more. Just wondering your thoughts.

P.S. Can anyone photoshop an OEM 92-95 civic lip on there also.

Looks cool -- is Lamin-X the brand of paint used for painting lights yellow?

Lamin-X is a protective film.

Get some clear GTS headlight covers then apply the film to them. That was you can switch between clear and the yellow.

Looks crappy on the black housings. On just the headlight part of the oems it would look nice though. Just combine that with some amber corners, it should look good.

I already answered? it's a protective film, that is made in yellow, transparency over your headlights. IMO the only thing that needs to be yellow are fog lights.

Why not just save the money and fix the bumper and hood? That would probably change your outlook on the front end.
