              Only hobby stores have it. Try a local model car shop. They may carr the Tamiya Color brand.

                      Picture your highs with a yellow tint. Light output does not change. I will try and post some up today.

                        Heres how mine turned out, this was just a practice headlight i got from the junkyard, so dont worry about the lower right corner being broken; I did get all that old silicone out there before i sealed it up.

                          Looks good. You may want to paint the little reflector black as well.

                            wont that reduce output though? It looks like it has all these mirrored flat surfaces on it to refract the light doesn't it? I was thinking about doing it.....hmm

                              Try checking light output with it painted and unpainted. I didn't notice a difference.

                                oh i see what you did, just paint the front of it...the part you see looking dead on and mask off the sides. Yeah that will look much better
