inlinefour.com sells it in the lighting section

you can also get stained glass paint at a craft store which does the trick.

this is the stained glass paint when i was experimenting with completely yellowed out headlights this is after several coats, how dark it is depends on how many coats obviously.......go ahead, say they look gay this was a couple years ago and they are back to clear.

it just sprays on like spray paint....if you mess up or don't like the way it looks it can be removed with a razor blade....i personally like the way my headlights looked but i got pulled over 3 times in 2 days for them. You should have no problem with the police for foglights though.

the paint i got is made by Krylon and is simply called "Krylon Stained Glass"

Go to your auto parts store and buy the anodized finish spray paint. In yellow I forget what exactly its called but it sprays on transperently and more coats for a darker finish looks really good.

get yellow headlight film from stickercity.com It won't chip or flake off like the paint eventually will, and as a bonus it will also protect the glass lenses from getting broken. I've seen lots of OEM fog lenses broken because they're so low to the ground, so the film overlay would be a good investment.
