Some people complained about my yellow lights. In my not so finest moment, I caved to peer pressure and peeled them off, and now I think I regret that. Tell me it looks better so I don't spend more money to get them back...
Also, I tried black dip on the fog light chrome, no me gusta. Too much black. Maybe if it wasn't flat black? I don't know, I might try to do black with glossifier. I'd also be curious to try the new smoke dip, cut back on the chrome without getting rid of it.

I was one of the ones who complained, and I think this looks fantastic, aggressive enough but not overly so, stealthy would be a good way to describe it.

I didn't like the yellow high-beams, but I was partial to the yellow foglights.

Split the difference. Make only the bottom half yellow.

I don't know man, just do what you want with your own car. . . Fuck what other people think about it. They don't have to drive it.

Thanks for that, I know but I got caught up in it. I did agree that the inner lights were so so, but as soon as I peeled off the lower, instant regret

Yeah, I think I'm going back to that. Oh well, with the experience I have now the next set should go on even better!

I think it's too stealthy, ya know? Too plain for me. I do agree that the inner lamps were too much, but I'm going to redo the fogs

What material are you using to do the yellow fogs?
I have yellow fog bulbs in the GTI and at night I definitely like the look.

Headlight Armor. Precut thick sheets. That's why I regret it, I basically threw out $30. Not a big deal, being single with a good job helps in these situations lol

First, do whatever you want to your car. It's yours to enjoy.
Second, I like it much better without the yellow. It's gaining that colorless look that's found in euro-style.

I actually really liked the yellow lights as you had them.

I also said the yellow didn't look good. It really just stood out way too much and looked tacky. Right now, it looks a lot better. You already have the yellow lashes, and blacking out the Chevy badge while yellowing another part of the car seemed..counter-intuitive?
