Yeah that works haha I really didn't understand what you said lol. But yeah. How did you do yours? I did a light coat of nightshades a couple months who n I did another coat a coupe nights ago. They came out perfect. There like a nice cherry red.

Oh n when I did the first coat a couple months ago I sprayed the whole thing n with this time I taped off the reverse.

I got my tails done at a local tuner shop 2 yrs ago. They used an exterior tint film, and there was only one shade at the time...

Not really. I actually like the amber corners on these heads, I just think they look a little goofy from certain angles. Do you mean just spray the entire chrome housing black, but still leave the amber piece in there?

Thats the same thing I didnt like about them. They would look good from one angle, & ugly from another. Even after I took out the orange reflector. The shade of orange on the reflector is ugly to me as well. The shade of orange used in the JDM Heads looks much better, & from every angle. Thats why Ive never cleared my JDM's.
But yeah you could black out the chrome portion and leave the reflector; or use some night shade to spray a light tint over the reflector portion of the head, which will mask the chrome, and give you a darker shade of orange, while maintaining sufficient light output.

Just washed it for the first time in like 3 months

**Corey2kG** · 01-03-2011, 10:52 PM

I took the best night shot with the leds that I could. This was right after I did my tie rods tonight.

I think that would take away a lot of the visibility. I really don't mind the color right now, but if I were to remove them, I would have to paint my fogs. I need some kind of color on the front end to contrast the black and white. I don't really like seeing the bulb either, but don't want to buy those eBay ones with the clear lens (at least spend that much money on it.. lol)

No not smoke them dark. Just a light coat on the reflectors themselves give it that "JDM" amber if you will. Let me check n see if I still have some pics.
