Let me know what you guys think!

Krylon Stained Glass Paint and some polyurethane clear coat is the way to go! The yellow stained glass paint by krylon is damn hard to find though.

Edit: Thanks for all the comments guys! This is definetly the way to go nowadays since it's impossible to find the "real JDM" ones!

interesting... those are "JDM" fogs... why did you paint them yellow?, i got some 'JDM' fogs on mine that came standard but i dont really like em, they dont help lighting very much, just kinda a waste of power.... j/ks. good work though

Looks good...can you post a pic facing the front of the car with the lights turned off? I want to get a feel for the new "look" of the front end.

Thanks!

how long ago did you get these lights? my friend has been looking on ebay for awhile and cant find them. Also was this a complete kit with harness and factory switch? How much you did you pay. Sorry for all the ?'s he just really wants them.
