i'm just trying to decide what route i want or even to go yellow for my oem fogs on my 99 sel. I was thinking yellow h3 bulbs but i'm not sure if it will look yellow enough or should i paint my lens yellow with kyrlon. Can anyone photo shop this lens painted yellow

i have a 99 sel sterling mist, or if anyone has done it post up.

i already have a retrofit done with a 4300 osram so i wanted yellow fogs the oem fogs are nasty halogen ughh.


so my request are peoples' oppions, and pics of it on any car, light output for both painted lens and bulbs comparison, painted lens pics, thanks guys.

I would just put hyper yellow bulbs in there and dont paint it, it would look much cleaner IMO.

 

My sig has Luminics (sp?) Yellow H3 55w fogs.
Bulbs only last about 6 months, but the color is nice.

 

thanks, they only last 6 months? ouch tht can get expensive

 

At 30 bucks a set, over 6 months the cost is minimal.
















































But I aint replacing them, it's back to stock for me.

 

have u looked into the ebay yellow fogs? they're prepainted yellow and u wouldn't have to get any special bulbs i'd imagine. however, no ones posted pics of them

 

i found h3 yellow from autolimination for 10shipped/pair. h3 55watt anyone ever buy these whats 10bucks i easily spemnd that everywek @ chipotle; nachos, a damn good burrito bowl and a drink. so i figure i have nothing to lose just one week without going to chipotle, lol,,

they have a lot of auto lights there not just h3 there are leds 1156,197 whater u need, even regular headlight for damn cheap is this place for real? well i hope so bc i jsut paypaled them for my h3s when i get em i'll post pics with my new newly retroed color modded hids.
someone check this place out
www.autolumination.com

 

Keep us posted on it. Seeing that I would also want to try these yellow bulbs.

 

Opinion....

 

it may be real cheap for 10shipped but it wont get here for 10 days

 

Do you have a digital camera?

 

yea i got one i'll take pics once i get the yellow bubls prob post up in 12 days, i wonder how much distinct they will look with the hid retro

 

i'd keep it stock. i like the look of them, the yellow lenses wouldnt look all to good.
oh well to each his own!

 

thanks for your oppinion but i am running a hid retrofit and i had the chance to check em out after i did the color mod on these projectors and mounted on my sel on a dark coutnry raod about 100 feet away they are purple and these are off of 4300 dsr osram bulbs and the damn parking lights and fogs ruin my headlights, i want more contrast intead of ugly cream halogen, lol

 

ok here is an update on the bulbs o got em in. i'm not even gonna take pics. I is a bust, they are yellow but not very yellow kind of a yellow dull halogen, oh well what do u expect for 10shipped autolumination must only be good for leds.

 

I like my Yellow bulbs, good contrast untill i get 12k HID Fogs...

 

which ones do u have i got there so called neon yellow, there was an option for there other yellow ones do u have those? don't get me wrong there is quite a bit of contrast when compared next to my hid retro 4300 osrams but i want more yellow and it is damn difficult to aim the fogs i've turned them and tuend them and the beam pattern won't change at least for the passenger side they just scatter light everywhere i want em focused on the forgrond which way do u turn em?

 

do NOT paint it. looks terrible. a kid at my school has a jetta and he painted the lens. it just looks dumb. ide go with bulbs personally.

 

i bought yellow H3's off of ebay they looked great but 1 blew in a month. and the other bulb the color was flaking off.

 

One of my Hyper Yellow luminics blow every 3 months constantly, but I love the look and contrast.

 

y not just try the yellow capsule mod

 

You could buy those yellow lensed fog lamps from ebay...

 

i may do that do i have to bake the fog light in order to install the capsules? where do i get em?

 

please don't paint the lens.
If I was ur car and u painted my lenses I would just crash into a wall to kill myself.

 

LOL

 

this may sound dumb but have anyone put yellow wax paper in the lenses? It prolly wouldnt turn out to great huh?

theres the full write up too it

 

I would stick with stock bulbs. IMO it looks better.

And yea, the capsule mod > * yellow fogs by far. Nothing else can compare...

 

but the capsule mod only gives you yellow light but not more lighting... nor would the yellow bulbs for that matter.

 

I never claimed you'd get more light output. That's impossible if you're gonna be using the same type of bulb. I just said that's the best option to go with if you want real yellow fogs.

 

all i want is foreground lighting distinction i don't need more light that is what i have my hid retro for. If the fogs were too bright it wouldn't help at all in the fog. fog lights are meant to light up foreground beneath the fog if it is too bright it will just light up the fog and ruin my visibility. try throwing on high beams in a real dense fog you'll see what i mean.

 

Lexus Capsule

 

DITTO.....

 

ditto indeed, well the capsules have to wait until i get this damn cel to go off

 

i bought some off ebay from a member named global preimere. They have lasted about a year and a half and are real yellow compared to anything i ever tried. They run about $15 shipped a pair.

Pictures never do yellow bulbs justice they are much yellower fomr a distance and in person

 

best yellow bulbs were the Narva Rally Golds.. they were 85 watt though and cracked my old lenses. Lamin x vinly tape gets you a good color. thats what i have. i like how it looks though some peeps on here dont.

 

I went with the lamin x and yellow bulbs (ebay, forgot the name) and it's been pretty good to me so far...

 

how did you blck out your corner lights and turn signal lights?

 

His lights, he did himself, search for "AE Headlights" His corners are the "Euro" ones that you get from http://www.customenterprise.com/view...sd/scspid/4717 or you can get the same lights from ebay for much cheaper.
