Photoshop headlight request

[oldblu]

Can some PLEASE tint these headlights to be smoked or that yellow lamix?

I'm getting new ones later but am very tired of the ebay lights and want to see if film can transform them. (Worst mistake ever made, I know)









PS. I have the grill inserts now and fogs and if my car looks crappy, just remember that I know which is why I'm investing some time, money and effort over my break.

[oldblu]

Also, does anyone know the dimensions of our headlights? So I can order the film if I decide to do it

[A4Rob]

LaminX comes pre cut for our headlights :)

[NorCal1.8T]

i wonder if lamin-x yellow headlights and foglights on a black b5 would be too much?

[oldblu]

LaminX comes pre cut for our headlights :)

But Decal-Fx stuff does not and they have a good value for 2 uncut sheets.

[oldblu]

i wonder if lamin-x yellow headlights and foglights on a black b5 would be too much?

I'd rock that look if I had gold/bronze wheels

Or if my car looked like the B6 that was converted to a b7



And seriously, can some please help me out by tonight? My trial version is up and I wanted to order the stuff so they ship by tomorrow

[oldblu]

By the way Rob,

The dent is in that general region and that size in respect to the rest of the hood

Just so you know since we were discussing it

[oldblu]

You're the man!

So yay or nay? and which ones?

[Tifun]

no on yeller, meh on the tint, very doable. I like OEM lights with joey mod.

[NorCal1.8T]

It looks pretty cool on a white b7, i would try yellow or just put the oem lights back on, do the cc mod.Get yourself a rs4 grill

[audiFUEGO]

think twice man.

[oldblu]

I can't put the OEM lights back on on account of I don't have them lol

Yellow works on some cars but you guys are kinda right, it won't work on mine.

And what's the "Joey Mod"

Grill - Least of my worries but if I come across an S4 grill for cheap I might. I can't justify a hundy on a grill though

Anybody have some black headlights with the lamin-x gunsmoke tint? I'm thinking about doing that.. would like to see pictures if anybody has them.

I would agree tint looks decent.. yellow not so much, it just doesn't work with your car IMO.

[oldblu]

agreed. Though look at Docurly's car (prior to the damage) He had smoked headlights. I think I'm might go for it.

[oldblu]

And how about blue? It looks good on some silver bimmers.

[Jc61990]

heres some different tints of yellow and black...

[oldblu]

I kind of like that. (Thanks!) I think I'm gonna go for it. Would you say the length of our lights are less than 12 inches?

[Jc61990]

might be a little bigger

And what's the "Joey Mod"

Well its when you paint the background of the headlights a color. I did it and I'm not too sure of anyone else who has done it.

They only turned out half decent:









The silver repeaters are key, those blue ones didn't look good at all

They might be for sale if you're interested...

Pink!!!! Seriously i love it, this was my buddies car last summer, not he has a Lotus Extige...

[oldblu]

nice on blue. Not silver lol

I so want to do this..... The black background ones on ebay are questionable.

[Siena]

Problem is, we go to great lengths to improve our lighting, by fitting HID's, and getting rid of the feeble yellow halogens.

Then slap on yellow film??

Back to square one!

[oldblu]

Good point. But this is temporary. I'll only put HIDs when I go back to OE Style lights-which I plan to

[Jc61990]

my headlights are the ebay black housing ones.. i like them.. probly would look sick if i did a really light tint on the lens

[discontained]

[Jc61990]

that laser red is sick... i want to paint my car that color!

The previous owner of my avant did the joey mod on the stock one piece valeos. He painted it to match the santorin blue. I never liked it, and finalyl got a pari of valeo ecodes xD

[Quattro 4 Life]

yeah i tried painting the ring around the lowbeams red to match but it failed miserably. i'm personally getting kinda tired of em, and the seals are bad so they fog like a yatch up here in the PNW

[oldblu]

ordered. $25 off amazon. Rvinyl vendor. pre-cut

[oneohone]

I like your car alot, but wtf happened to your hood!!

Crappy Pshop of mine.

[Quattro 4 Life]

i assume your talking about the gaping?

i'm not totally sure but its the best i can do, i think the car might have gotten in a fender bender cause there's a huge spot on the driver side bumper corner that has touch up paint so it leaves me to believe it might have

btw my grill has chrome rings now, its not all blacked out, that didn't last long

[oldblu]

Oh yeah. Pimpman, you're the reason I ordered them. I liked them on your car. Hopefully they'll look nice on mine too.
