DTM and AE headlights...

I did the DTM and AE headlights mods to my black maxima. It looks sick. These are the greatest mods I've done to my car yet(excluding y-pipe). And the greatest part of it is that I only spent $4 for a can a black spray paint. This inspired me to start making my own modifications from now on..

Yeah, my mom was pissed. She said "why the hell are your lights in the oven, haciendo reguero por la casa." I said " They taste better when they are hot"

I did the corner lights the same way as headlights.
I used NiteShades Tint spray on bumper lamps.

Does anymore have any close up pics of the DTM tail lights with and without the blinkers on? I'd like to do this but it seems without the orange and clear piece in the taillights then the light wouldn't be reflected properly and then the blinkers would be really hard to see? Also when looking into the tail lights without the orange and clear reflectors isn't the bulb clearly visible?

I already have homemade clears that I did and the light output on the blinkers isn't wonderful but it's tolerable and I'm wondering if this is better or worse.

any input?

I have red Polarg bulbs as my turn signals and most people say they can see them, others say they barely can. Basically it's a red blinking circle in the middle of the black. The light does not reflect real well off the black for obvious reasons.. As long as the sun isn't behind me it's pretty easy to see the blinkers..

That's what I was afraid of. I think I'll stick with my red/clears simply for safety.

But those would be white, correct? and blinkers need to be yellow or red.
