Okay i've read searches on doing this for the headlights to paint the housings black. I just tried it on my clear corners and 250 at 6 minutes and the melted. Anyone else have this happen. I'm pissed. I was going to do both the headlights and the corners, but screw that, I'll leave them stock.

 

i think thats on the newer hondas .. i havent heard of doing it to a crx,,, never seen it done....but you never know best of luck......later

 

Dude...too funny!! I did the same thing last night!! I melted 2 pairs!!!!

That's why I need a new pair:

Heh heh lol...at least I'm not the only one!

 

that makes me feel a lot better. Well a little better. I say we try the headlights tomorrow. I bought some clear corners at nopi for 24 bucks. I might do the ghetto amber ones myself. Or maybe throw them in the oven too.

 

jdm y0!

 

If you put plastic in the oven at 250degrees its gonna melt.

 

are you painting the inside of your headlights or your clears??.... if you do your head lights ., lighting wont be good , but if you want, theres 4 clips i think that hold the glass on take them off easy, put the rest in the oven for a bit, and then cut away the glue that holds them on... the rest is cake. just remember the engineer didnt design it for no reason.

 

what about using a hairdrier instead of an oven?


because i'm friggen scared of melting muh headlights... LOL

 

it might work, really all you need to do is heat up the glue so it will come apart easy.

 

what i did was use a heat gun. i did that at a shop i worked for about 9 years ago.

 

if I was you I'd just get the black housing projectors and call it good instead of trying to paint the stock ones

 

projectors are very expensive... and for what? yay. m@d tit3 proJektors, y0! that's soooo worth the $300.

this, however is a free mod... free mods own.

 

bahahahahh that oven method is such crap

use a heat gun!!!!!!!

 

free mods, yeah I'll have to agree that it's cheaper (duh of corse) but I still would save up and just get the black house projectors and get a HID conversion for them, that'd be sweet

 

Its 200 degrees for 8 minutes you monkeys!!! Check this thread (its a how-to with pics)..... https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=282131

 

Is it just me or is this thread stupid? I think that you should go buy the headlights, but I know about the money issue my, I got the same problem. I think it would work on the headlights because they are glass, but the plastic corners, well you know what happend.

 

I got my CRX corners apart. When I am done painting them Ill post pics.

 

i did my headlights with a heatgun and it was almost to hot.
