Painted my 04's Fog lights
 
So I followed Darren's instructions on his post from a while back. I would have to agree that this was one of the biggest PITA mods I have done so far. having to stick each piece of tape on something cotton at least 4 or 5 times. Not to mention that it was hard to get the tape in there especially with my fat fingers and big hands. I used krylon fusion paint in the matte black. Anyways here are some pics:

Just Masked them:

totally worth it.

now do your headlights!

I love seeing more painted fog lamps. Looks great. Looks like you did well on keeping the paint low adhesive, I do not see any black spots :thumbsyup: Looks a little funny without your headlamps painted though, I have my OEM chrome headlamps and I decided to put them on one day and it looked pretty funny.

Thanks Guys, Darren I have my Black Headlights on the way from Lordfeyr, he is doing them for me like others have done through the classifieds. I don't have enough time to do my own because its a DD, and I go to school and work everyday.

Here are some pics of one of the lights:

He's buffing the lights for me and sending them out today or tomorrow..I can't wait to throw them on :D

Oh sweet. Looking forward to seeing your truck with the lamps. DSG with black heads and fogs I have yet to have need yet.

TruckGuy24 Dec 8, 2009 01:02 PM

Carolinaboy32 Dec 8, 2009 01:20 PM

Slow down with the mods, hoss. :D

Carolinaboy32 Dec 8, 2009 09:45 PM

haha sorry I got the bug :lol:....I have no days off I call those "mod days" or "truck days" :D...next HIDs then done for a while....so i think

What do y'all suggest to clean the lenses on the fogs ? They insides of the lenses were pretty much shot...I will get new foglights eventually and do this again if it bothers me enough

mblouir Dec 8, 2009 09:48 PM

Heard that. Each semester let's just say I get back quite a large lump sum from Clemson because of excess scholarships. It spells trouble. :lol:

Clean the inside or outside? What are you cleaning?

KingRod Dec 8, 2009 09:51 PM
