If anybody still wants to do this, I've done it with the krylon stained glass paint from Michael's, it $7 for a can. I'll try and snap pics asap, it looks great. http://www.krylon.com/main/product_temp ... ct_details

isnt the fog light cover plastic though and will it affect how far the lights beam? If its just as safe I think I'll take my fog tints off and spray this.

Let me run outside, brb haha. Yea the cover is plastic, but if you read the back of the can it says it can go on SOME plastics, and so far so good, i figured I'd take a risk and try it out. The beam is still pretty good, I personally can't tell a difference, any sort of coloring though will block out some light imo if I could do it again, I wouldn't have sprayed so many coats, but I had to because the first can i got was defective and sprayed globs at first :evil: .

Oh yea I knew that, just sayin what I did since I didn't want to have to order through mail (nothing good locally). Plus it was slightly cheaper. But of course there's tons of spray colors like that available, as sclara mentioned, as well as pink, baby blue, and some adhesive films. If anybody wants the rest of the can you can have it for free, I don't think I'm ever going to have to tint anything else yellow.

looking good. I was thinking about yellow fog bulbs for my girl's ES300 but after seeing this, sweet!!! I'm definitly do this when I get a chance aka warmer weather in MA.

Thanks for the great idea, not to mention cheap too!

Two lights are more fogs :). I'm actually thinking of moving them to another special location, we'll see how it turns out.
