Metal Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Show off your blacked out headlights. Include your close-up shots so we can see the design. I'm especially interested in steel silver metallic cars with blacked out headlights. While discussing this... what would you guys consider the best paint to make it look factory? Engine enamel paint, the good ol' Krylon Fusion or other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeltaSniper Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Blacked out your turn signal as well?^^ if you want the JDM Style headlights look into my profile... I have the pictures on my visitor message wall from a JDM Legacy's headlight I took pictures of in great detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subie3429 Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 ^ yes i did the signals too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaSniper Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Hm.. I did the same thing but Im worried about turn signal visibility, did you change your bulb or was it amber to begin with? My turn signal is clear but the lens (Which i removed) was amber, so now mine is clear... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subie3429 Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 The bulb was always amber. It really didn't mess with the visibility very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m sprank Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Two sets from this weekend. Both done with a 24hour turnaround. Too fast IMHO. I need 3 days to get it perfect. I will be buying a new set of OEM 2010 lamps and perfecting the JDM black out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m sprank Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 For christs sake stop copying those pix. Pull them down. That or learn to resize and get a faster hosting. My T-1 line is acting like a damn 56k connection because your file size is WAAAYYYY too large for the speed of your hosting. Rant over. The 05-07 lamps I posted pix of a few pages back are for sale. Buyer gave wrong address via PayPal. I refunded his money and they were returned by the shipper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(and I don't intend to start a war here..) I think that while people with a high post count might know their forum etiquette back to front and inside out, they sometimes neglect to obverve real world etiquette too... A simple "could you please resize your images" would have achieved the same result with a bit less ranting.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Thats why I said "rant over". Some people probably got the joke. Since you are new here, I dont expect you to get it. I should have clarified better. Used a bunch of faces. My bad. I love your car and checked out the first pix you posted. it was all the copying of them by future posts that slowed down the servers. It happens. Beautiful car though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
