ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

    It's krylon stained glass paint. I got mine from michaes's craft store. They had a section all for stained glass and it was hiding on the bottom shelf pushed back in the shelf. It is also about 1/3 the size of a standard spray paint can and costs about 10.00. Then take the headlights apart and spray multiple thin coats until you get the yellow you want. You can make it light or you can make it a deep golden yellow.

          I havent done it, but my co worker painted it with the stain glass paint. It looks alright. One thing though, he did forget how many coats he applien on the left one and overpainted the right one. lol...now one is darker than the other. He ran out of money so he couldnt fix it. But we get paid in a week so now he has to wait. It would probably be better just to get the lightbulbs. It is way easiere than messing up with the paint.IMO

            And looks better. Stained yellow reflectors just looks weird.
            I also got tired of looking at it very quickly. With the yellow bulbs, you can easily swap them out for clear bulbs if you ever get tired of having yellow highbeams.

                            If you want HID then you have to get 3000k ones..but you will get pulled over.

                            When i did my DIY blackhousing lights i used Kylon stained glass rattle can. Make sure you take your time or it will come out like shit.
