Since im on the fence about buying new headlights and i dont have a honda/acura i decided to spilt them and paint them,maybe add some shit ... idk
Ive spilt the headlight from the basket its self...
Baked in the oven to 315 * for 7 minutes glue got really tacky and soft,pryed with a small flat head and like butter they split :D
went to my closet and found some painters tape left over from my wheel refinish,taped off what i wanted to not paint....masked up im not masking the high beam ( right side of headlight ive got something in mind for that one )
another angle :
Painted this shit
found a set of led foggies off a jeep from work,they both work lucky me..
wasnt feeling the look of them so i pulled them apart to bare circut board and led + resistor
taped the led's such a PITA..
painted that black too...
then i popped the foggie in place when the high beam goes glued it with crazy glue (no turning back now)
it dried up,slapped the light back into the oven for another 7 mintues @ 315* glue got tacky threw the lense on,pressed on it like i was shitting a river held in place for 2 minutes untill it cooled down..
my headlight is yellowish,i cant sand it down anymore i can see low spots and yes theres a small hole where a nipple is suppose to be @ the top...
ill post a photo of it tomorrow done..
i got one side down,connected and shit but i need to finish up my other side..
