Okay I got this idea the other day when my boyfriend was lookin on ebay for some yellow fogs for his si... and the more he looked the more discouraged he got, the prices were NUTS... so I got a lil idea... a simple way to make your own yellow fogs... I practiced on my stock fogs out of my 94 del sol...

okay so if you are interested here is what you need and how to do it...
very fine paint brush
1000 or higher sand paper (for wet sanding and prepping the lenze of the fog light)
water and soap
a hair dryer (if you are not into waiting)
tamiya color clear yellow (most hobby shops about 2$ a jar)

first you need to take the fogs out and wash all the dirt and road trash off of them
then you need to wet sand the surface just a little
then make sure you dry it very well
then shake the paint
and apply
apply a coat let it dry and just repeat untill you get it the tone you want... it took me a jar and a half to do my fogs... but you could probaly use only one and be fine... total cost between 5-10 dollars depending on if you have sand paper and how many jars you want to use... and here is the finished product...




i will add some more of them actually on the car and on... tomorrow

There are far better and easier ways to do this,

Krylon Stained Glass Yellow and Vans Yellow Lens Paint to name a couple.
