[quote=saywat?;6544077][QUOTE=dvandriesen;6543010]Just got done doing my one and damn you really need to use some force to get these things open. Thanks for the DIY i think they turn out great.

I'm gonna take a guess and say that since it is not a projector style headlight painting that masked off area will cause the headlights to shine like **** at night. Great writeup i'll be doing this whenever I'm off from work smh.

 

Incorrect

 

Ok so what's the correct answer??

 

Idk that's why I asked. but I kno that area has nothing to do with reflecting

 

I did it this way to help with lighting. I would think it will help reflect more light and I thought looked cool. No real reason.

 

Hello, thanks for the info very nice done.... I was wondering if I can use plasti dip on this for 5 coats or so and then throw some clear on it to seal it.... I just don't know if it would be a good idea because it could come out with time and just mess the light up. thanks

 

I've never used plasti dip so I can't answer you on what it would do/look like over time. Why not just use something more permanent?

 

Plastidip is a lot easier because you dont have to sand in or use primer.... Just spray it... I guess I'll be better off with real paint anyways thanks!

 

duplicolor bumper paint? is it called something else, I cant seem to find any, one other thing, does anyone know what size to cut the turn signal lens, I would like to precut before I remove my lights.

Thanks for the great DIY

What year G do you have, sedan or coupe?

 

2005 coupe and thanks for the link

 

No problem

I don't remember exactly what the size is for the coupe turn signal lense but I want to say it's 2.5" ? Your best bet would be to cut out the orange lense when you have the headlights apart and then use the turn signal housing as a template to make the new lense. It will have to be slightly larger than the opening as you will want to mount it from the back. However, it would look best if you could find a projector lense to put in that location instead of what I had originally done.

Hopefully one of the coupe peeps can chime in on the exact size of that lense

 

How do you get a different color turn signal and change out the lights to halo ones?wanting to know what to buy ?

 

Sounds good...thanks, u know we're I could find projector lenses?

 

^ I always bought them on ebay.
