biting ruffryde009 styles
jus blacked out the headlights, waiting to find the best caulking to seal these up.. neways i just took em apart and it was easier than i thought. baked for 8 or so mins on 200 C in the oven.. i painted behind the amber so it kinda tints the amber a bit.. and painted the inside of the light wit stained glass krylonpaint.. neways heres a pic.. lmk wut u think and wuts the best type of caulking to use, only if you no from experience, thanks:

i kinda like what you've done with the headlights, its definately different. you might have problems down the road if the yellow paint cracks or fades from the sun and heat (just a guess).
to seal the headlights, use silicone.

Rep Power: 228 hmmmmm...in the night time those are gonna look sooooo hot. the best one i know from experience is silicone or urethane...they do an excellent job but are a little harder to apply on than most others...

Rep Power: 285 looks good, but its going to suck if a cop pulls you over and you have to get new headlamps because of the illegal yellow tint.
