Which set up is better? Also Weekend Painting Project Completed (5 Pix included)
Which set up is better?
presently it looks like whats in the headlight but i bought a new pair of blinker assemblies new so i could do something different since im not a fan of the smoked gray lens i put in a few months ago. there is a picture of what it looks like with the stock orange lens next to it, but what i was thinking of doing was taking out the lens all together to give it a mini projection housing theme. those sidemarkers are the stockers back in because i sold and shipped my cleared ones to 98maxi, i plan to tint these when i get the spray in the mail, so ignore the amber uglyness =\
Completed Painting Project
-Housing blackened out semi glossy
-Replaced a broken ring and ballast, angel eyes work again
-Got rid of the 02/03 clips, no more ugly GAPS! (special thanks to BlackBIRDVQ for the help with that)
-Chrome tail fix after first screw up, and now both are redded out (still kinda amberish, when i get more time ill spray a little more candy red)
edit: yes i know it says 5 pix included but it wouldnt let me load 5 so its down to 4 =\

Instead of sealing it down, can't you just get window insulation and stick it to the underside of the housing? That way you don't have to stick something to the paint of your bumper.
This will also deaden them if they're vibrating or loose.

The 3M tape will not hurt the paint, all you would have to do is use goo gone to get rid of any residue left behind if you remove it. Besides it is under the housing no one can see that part of the bumper.
