Foglight Refresh 96-98

[Noeladams]

Well I have been meaning to redo the foglights, the paint was okay but it chips and darkens over time. This time I thought I would go a different route. I recently visted www.stickercity.com and noticed that they sell yellow film that you put on your headlights. They sell a varity of products but I thought I would try the film.

The only thing is their install process was wrong for the foglights obviously because of all the corners and rounding it over. The film is really thick and we'll see how durable it is. I know it has a warantee on it but im sure it wouldnt cover my application.

so here is a before/after
after on the left, before on the right lol.

looks 100x's more better dude....I'm not a fan of that dark amber...I think it looks like junk. Nice job with it man!!

 

[Noeladams]

looks good. I'm begining to like the 96-98 front end a lot more. maybe I should do a conversion on my EM1 LOL.

I'm more of a fan of the 99-00 but I think that a 96-99 with a ctr lip or mugen and fog lights really makes it look a heck of a lot better then just plain. I really like the fog lights for the 96-98's. When i get mine im gonna keep them clear and just put in JDM y0! yell0w bulbs.

looks nice, reminds me of the raybrings

have you ever thought of throwing the 98 tails back on? I think it would flow better with your theme

 

[anekin007]

looks good.. i bought it from them also.. not from their site but i won it off ebay couple weeks ago for a 12x12 size for 9 shipped. i think their yellow looks better then the krylon paint because most of the time it looks orange more then the yellow. i used up only a small portion i bet i can still do 3 or 4 more sets of it for the fogs.
