Yellow Fog Light Film?

i was wondering if there is a type of yellow film you can buy to put over the glass of the fog light assemblies to give the light emitted a real yellow look(thus making the assemblies look yellow when off). I have a set of piaa yellow fog light blubs installed right now, but i wish they could be more yellow? Could this film be bought at NAPA, Murray's, or autozone? Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You. I should have probably posted this elsewhere but i have a 4th GEN.

it's called lamin-x. you might have to do a web search for it b/c i don't think you can get it from just anywhere. But that just gives you the look with the light off, if you want real yellow lights, go with flea-bay or get the 3000k hid kit for your fogs.

i remember at a meet a few years ago someone had that yellow look you are talking about on his fogs. this is with the lights off, i asked him how did it . he told me he used some special spray paint. So there is a way to do it. Sorry i cant be of any more help.

I was thinking about doing my headlights up with yellow lamin-x...much like a BMW Z3-M. Either that or the light blue. Then doing the fogs in yellow.

I was talking to my friend and he said that you could buy NiteShade in different flavors. I think I have seen some cars with yellow headlights.

I am looking right now.


UPDATE: Nope I couldn't find anything like that.

This is film from Lamin-X. http://www.lamin-x.com/products-color-film.php You can buy it cut to fit for the 5.5 I'm not sure about 4th gens. If not then you can buy the sheets.

I am doing the 97-99 conversion and need to get fog lights. I wanted the yellow as well and saw those on ebay but have been reluctant because im not sure what they will look like on the car. Like if they will look good or not..

You could always paint them - years ago I painted fogs yellow using the VHT anododized paint. You will have to touch up occasionally but does let the light shine through well

I got my film from XpinGraphic's for $5.50 shipped (covers both lights)
He doesn't have an ebay anymore, but i can hook you up to him via facebook if you are interested.
Here are some pics so you can get an idea of what it looks like
