yellow high beams, blue low beam

[Act]

hey i saw a guy that had yellow high beams and his low beams were painted blue, anyone seen that? anyone have pictures? wat do u guys think about blue low beams?

Low beams painted blue...You sure it wasnt just the reflection of the bulb. My housing turns a bit blue from an angle on a nice sunny day. As for yellow you need to paint on which if I remember was discussed in one of your previous threads. But if you search for it there should be a DIY. I think djcaz_om updated a new one.

its the bulb!!....its like a pure blue bulb....i took mine out because i kept getting pulled over for having blue low beam headlights at night.......oh and look at my sign., i had my blue bulbs in at the time so at a angle it looks chrome but straight on it looks blue.

hey i guess ur right!!! thanx!!! im planning on doing my yellow beams this week end! wish me luck, im kinda nervous of sticking my headlights in the oven, i guess cause i've never done it.

[cali-racer]

i was like that the first time but its a piece of cake w/ a beer on the side ....but what kind of yellow paint ya use'n? and good luck!

[Act]

thanx,um i went to a crafts store and i saw that the had a yellow can that was for stain glass windows, is that cool? or should i use a specific kind?

[cali-racer]

thats good! or the Vans - yellow lense spray paint which u could only find online and cost's way more...i went to 3 different city's today tryna find a store that carry's stained glass spray cans, couldnt find it!!!!

[Act]

yeah, i bought a vans amber spray once, the small can was like $35!!! im luck y, theres a crafts store like 4 blocks from my house, i think a can only costs like $5.00!! im wondering if i should go with black housing, i seen a couple of them with the regular chrom and that looks nice two.

[cali-racer]

yea for the that lil' peice of shit can...but it works ....well, now's ya chance to blackhouse them, because once u put the lense back on, its a bitch to take them off...im still tryna to take off my usdm ones because i yellow high beamed them just to pratice before i did my jdm headlights and it came out good, but now i want to blackhouse them but cant get the damn silicone to melt!!

[Act]

lol that sux, yeah i think i will blackhouse them, so after i put them back together and everything how long should i wait for the silicone to dry so i can put them back on?

[cali-racer]

uummm, i think like 30 mins. or soo...i waited an hour to be safe....i carefully used c-clamps to keep it together while it dried...but u could always just touch the silicone and see if its dry or not.

[Act]

cool, hey by the way, is it illegal to do this? not that it will stop me from doing it, just curious i guess.

[cali-racer]

not at all. having blue bulbs or blue headlights is! i had a cop told me that once he pulled me over..lol....he said blue lights, no! yellow lights, ok!
