I always thought this look was hot since I had my 93 Accord SE which I had installed JDM 1 Piece Headlights onto...

Painted the Corners with some Candy Yellow Paint from Michaels the same way I did my old USDM Accord Headlights:

I like it a lot. I'm getting mixed reviews. But I think its pretty hot.

Different, I like it.

 

[InfiniteGSX]

Yeah it is. I wanna get another set of OEM Corners, pull them apart and paint the chrome inside black. See which one I like more.

Thanks!

I would like to see the black corners, thats how I want to do mine ultimately. Lets see a shot with those highbeams on pointed at a wall in the dark please! I am interested to see how it affects/helps visibility

Shooting Amber high beams at a wall doesn't show you the effects. Amber Lights help visibility with reflective things like snow or cops.... signs. Just like HID's. I'm replacing my 6000k HID Fogs with 1500k Amber HID's and I still need to pickup some Amber 9005 bulbs for the high beams to get the ultimate look. Afraid of running to high a voltage because of heat.

I did a photoshop to see if I liked the black/amber corners...

Wow at first I thought it was going to look like crap but after seeing your pictures with the amber corners, I really like it. It looks good.

 

[95gst16g]

I like the amber how you have it now.Not with the back black.But thats just my opinion.

 

[93spoolin]

i like the all black.amber is just to jdm for me. VeTeK Yo
looks good man. kudos

 

[Spoolin18]

looks cleaner without the amber.

 

[InfiniteGSX]

I didn't like the black corners at all. The only thing that lit up was the bulb so it looked too rice. I wanted an "OEMish" look.

I really like the full amber. I still need to get another set to try the Black/Amber corner.

 

[Evil_speedracer]

spray it amber, then black? That might take some rice out of the bulb. I might experiment. I like the smoked corners, thanks for posting the PS!

 

[InfiniteGSX]

Well I was gonna try something with the black corners. I was going to pull them apart and paint the black housing with that Reflective amber paint... and then VHT the lens so its amber but smoked and has that reflective look like a reflector, ya know...

there are just so many idea's. but taking apart the corner lights is what is scaring me. I tried pulling apart my old clear corners to paint the inside black... and they started melting.

 

[TSIMonsteR]

Props for doing something different. Personally I think it looks tacky, but thats only my opinion. If you like it,

 

[tnl]

looks pretty damn good. like it better without the smoked sides though.

you mean the darker reflectors? Thats just how it came out spraying the entire thing... Didn't wanna do any masking. The driver side didn't come out to good, so I'm gonna try plastic polish and see if it helps smooth it out.

i like the look it is diff and i like that keep up the good work
