Figured I'd share. Although it does require painting the housings. The headlamps are DDM 6000K Hi/lo's soon to be replaced by MH1 projectors. The fogs are Tamiya TS-13 and TS-73 paint, approx 12 coats with 3000K DDM HID's.

Indeed, even on the brightest of days - they are, however, faint.

If I ever come across high-output amber LED set ups, you'll be the first notified.

Aw man... these would have been pretty cool. And for only $50, too. I would have bought a pair.

Rochester its alright to continue to modify your car.you know you want those and get some nice Ti harware to put them in.

TunerMaxima3000

iTrader: (4)

Now THOSE look nice! The cheap azz ones that Rochester just posted are horrific, Rochester, my friend, I hope you're joking about getting those.

here's the ones VQ posted, THESE I would consider buying:

HIDs in Halogen housings give me headaches.

The fogs are different fitment from 5.0 gen (plastic) to 5.5 gen (glass).

You know something? You're absolutely right... I'm going crazy for lack of mod projects, even little bitty ones. Between winter and waiting for the next car, I've done nothing in many months. And even then, the last thing I did wasn't even a mod, it was a repair/replacement part.

You guys have inspired me. I have a pair of Amber LED H3 bulbs just collecting dust from a couple years ago. I think I'm going to install them.

Just because.

cjandura

iTrader: (3)

Bravo for you OLD chap!then you can do the window switch mod that im going to post with Tuner tomorrow.should only cost you like $2 to do.

Rochester

iTrader: (3)

I'll be watching.

OAN, although I've got 10 years on you, you're just as old as I am in the eyes of most of these hairless twinks.

Rochester

iTrader: (3)

Well, that was disappointing. One of these old H3 LED bulbs doesn't work. I don't know if only one ever worked, or if one went bad handling it, or what. All I know is I'm dead in the water.

Ah, the hell with it. Now I'm grumpy.

iTrader: (3)

Wow that brings back old times(Twinks) i havent herd that sence the late 80's

Front end is up on ramps, and my backside is covered in garage floor crap.

IDK about Thorazine, but a glass of Pinot seems like just reward. And it's always time for a nap, Albert. Always.

Yeah realized that after I posted but couldn't get back to the computer to correct it.
Too bad. If you like the look with them off, you should just buy some yellow vinyl my friend, unless you're opposed to the yellow look while the lights are off. I would be.
The vinyl is cheap, goes on very easily, and if you don't like it, you just take it off.......

Metrostyling.com has provided decent stuff to me with great customer service, I'd recommend them for your vinyl needs if you choose this route. Shipping was INSANE fast, reasonably priced, and packaged with more care than I'd ever imagine. Even came with applicator.

^That's the only one posted worth trying. The rest aren't Amber. I'm surprised SUPERBRIGHTLED's is listing it as Amber, considering they don't make Amber 5050's yet. i know many places list yellow and amber as one and the same, but Superbright doesn't traditionally do that. Even the colour shown is Yellow, not their amber (orangy) looking colour code. I suspect this is simply a mistake.

Do I even want to know what Pinot is? Yuppie American "beer"? (if you can really call american beer "beer".

You know, I tried a sheet of Amber vinyl when this idea first came up. It was quality material, but it just looked wrong. I imagine having the glass lens tinted might look only slightly less wrong.

Nah, I'm done. Next car.

Short for Pinot Noir, you freaking Troglodyte.

Rochester needs to throw down 3-4 Guiness Extra Stouts or maby a Stella or 6.

Now that I can relate to.

Keep your Canadian ale on your side of the lakes, Tuner.

Whoa! I know this is all stupidly off-topic, but check out the website for Newcastle Brown Ale.

TunerMaxima3000

iTrader: (4)

Well done. Any mods from this point on should be simple "something to do" stuff. That is, until you buy a real car.
Clearly this is one that will require a slight investment and some tinkering.

Though I don't see how vinyl can look and different from colour lens, that is, supposing the vinyl was the same colour and tint.

Hey dude I resent that! Just cause you're french doesn't mean you can call me names! (I'm assuming that you're french? A new developement, something I didn't know about you sir!)

And just 'cause I rock out in an igloo doesn't make me a full on Troglodyte. Just seasonally.

That may result in him gaining some 'taste'. Clearly something he has no interest in doing.


Just kidding big guy Time for a group hug

WTF? I'm an American. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent?

TunerMaxima3000

LMAO.


Oh and the Ale talk isn't at all off topic, AU CONTRAIRE I say!







Ahhh if only we could get them that colour.

i wonder whats going to happen to roch's max. i know his car is completely mint just by knowing how he is. that thing is probably a pleasure to drive.

Rochester

iTrader: (3)

I'm selling it to merovi.

He's graciously waiting for me to make my move. Figure April on the outside.

Prophecy99

iTrader: (1)

lucky guy.

Rochester

iTrader: (3)

He's psyched for it, far as I can tell. And for me, I feel a kind of pay-it-forward moment, because I know he appreciates the car. So it's all good.

TunerMaxima3000

iTrader: (4)

^ That's good news to hear! your car is mint, without a doubt you've cared for it well. And being a 6MT, with low miles, he's really getting a wicked car for an incredible price.

This is what i bought last week although the ones i got were more amber color than yellow but still look great. http://www.dashzracing.com/00-01-nis...f01-yel-a.html

i SWEAR i hate ebay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! damnit i was tryna find those

Rochester

I ran across the amber vinyl that I bought years ago, as one attempt at this thread's goal. It never really worked out, because even though it looked OK in the evening, it just didn't look right on the daytime fogs of my sheer silver Maxima.

But now I've got a new car. And it's white.

So I whipped out a pair of scissors and ran a crude experiment, just to see what it would look like.

and I really don't know just yet. It's interesting and different, and enough of a curiosity to take a picture to think about it for a while.

TunerMaxima3000

iTrader: (4)

I like it dude! It's hard to say if I like it better clear or amber, only because the plate is messing it up. Different colour yellow and all.

With the other style NY plates I think it could look very good indeed.


OAN this thread made me realize I really do want to paint my car something like this:

Rochester

iTrader: (3)

You surprise me sometimes, Tuner. I was expecting you to hurl at this idea.

If it were purely the "lit" look that I was going for, then I could buy a pair of yellow bulbs and call it a day. But I rather like the "unlit" look, with a splash of complementary color against the Moonlight White, particularly when ringed in chrome.

I need to figure out how to remove the lens housing and play with this on my desk, instead of on my driveway.

And yes, the NY plate is more orange than amber. IDK if or when I'm going to go with one of the custom themed plates that offer a different color scheme. That's going to be in my back pocket for a while.

TunerMaxima3000

iTrader: (4)

I like it against a white car. Euro style, it really does look sharp.

But with that NY plate it doesn't, at all. I am envisioning it with a normal white plate, and in that essence, I think it will look very good indeed.

Also, if you put a yellow Fog bulb in there now, you'll end up with the AMBER colour you want rather than the yellow you'd get with just a bulb, or just the tint. All in all it's a nice setup, IMO.

Nice work!

I do have a request for a PS of the white plate on there though

Rochester

iTrader: (3)

mmk. Don't know why the focus on the license plate, but here's what it would look like with a custom NY plate in traditional White/Blue. If I were to go with a custom plate, I rather like this Erie Canal version. I grew up in a canal town, so there's some personal history.
