Default Question About Headlights of Delsol

hey guys. im new here and i figured this is one of the best places to find the answer to my question. here we go

alright well a while ago i saw a picture of a delSol that had the middle fogs colored yellow. I was wandering do u buy them like that or do u paint them like? i really liked the way it looked. people say that it had that JDM look to it. if anyone could help me out with where to get the product or how much it is, or what to do in general, hit me up.

Perfect answer right there...

If you live near a model/hobby shop you can go in there and find transparent model paint in a spray type can. Not too expensive and you'll be in business.

I forget the company, but theres someone out there that makes transparent film too. Laminex maybe? Iunno...but some people use that stuff too. I'm sure someone will chime in with a place to get it. Alot of people use it on thier fog lights.

Anyone know what its called?

Check out http://www.teamdelsol.com for some cool stuff.


I looked around for a while for you on honda-tech and I couldnt find anything useable for you. Sorry brotha but hopefully that site I linked above can help you out a bit. I'm surprised I couldnt find a thread on painting those lights, or even a decent picture.

I feel like I failed, hahaha. And I like to think I'm pretty good at searching.

Yeah...thats what most people use for those lights. Like..if you see them on a car, there's a 90 percent chance they were just simply painted.

You'll be m3d JDM y0!
