i bet the reason the headlights look blue is he either has blue light bulbs, or it could be color contamination from the car (the light reflected from the paint shows blue on the lens). not too sure about the fog lights, try online speed shops and stuff, i know iv seen them around.

the foglickts i have no clue. as far as the headlights, you could do it the same way us talon guys get the tails all red. take krylon stained glass paint ot testors transparent model paint and spray over the lense. thats my guess

The headlights are actually like that, it's not anything with the camera or paint of the car.

I think farmdogg's response is what i was looking for, thanks.

Now he must tell me how he did his rearview mirror like that! :)

Yeah check out Ace hardware, they sell krylon blue glass stainer for $5. Do you all know if its legal? I mean cops here pull over people non stop for blue fogs, are blantantly blue, as in not hid, headlights legal?

It would only be illegal if the light emitted from the lights was blue, and chances are it would be. Any color other than the stock light colors is illegal (unless its white I suppose) Your best bet would be to call your local police station and get the low-down on your local laws. They vary from state to state.

EDIT: Could be a photoshop job too.... who knows :)

the foglights are 5 inch piaa's and the headlights seemed to be sprayed with transparent paint. the paint cannot be found at ace hardware, a 4 oz can usually sells for 40 bucks or so. check your local automotive paint department.

why would they pull you over for blue fog lights? would it really matter as long as your head lights are normal?

i currently have blue foglights...until next week when i get my PIAA's :D but i called and asked about it and they said it is illegal because A) its not stock b)it is distracting to drivers

i also think it has something to do with which color lights you are allowed to have on your car...ie white, yellow, red all stock colors cause certain lights are designated for certain public vehicles...like blue being for cops etc... this was not confirmed but im guess on this one. the first one was confirmed by DOT..

then again i live in NYC and they are pretty strict here
